Monster Hunter Wilds FF14 crossover event is bringing Omega Planetes. It will add 2 jobs from Final Fantasy. Do not focus on Gogmazios.
Monster Hunter Wilds is one of the biggest games that many people are waiting to play. The game already has many fans because the Monster Hunter series has always given players very exciting battles against huge monsters. In this new game one of the biggest surprises is the return of an elder dragon named Gogmazios. This dragon was first seen in an older Monster Hunter game and many hunters still remember how powerful and scary it was. When Capcom confirmed that Gogmazios is coming back many players felt very happy. Some players even said they jumped out of their seats because it was so exciting.
But the return of Gogmazios is not the only news. There is also another very big event that is happening inside Monster Hunter Wilds. This event is called the Omega Planetes event. It is a crossover event that brings something from Final Fantasy 14 into Monster Hunter Wilds. Some people may not know but Final Fantasy 14 is also a very famous role playing game with many millions of players all around the world. Many people spend years of their lives playing Final Fantasy 14. I am also a big fan of that game so this news feels even more special to me.
The event is important because the director of Final Fantasy 14 whose name is Naoki Yoshida once said that his team felt a little defeated in the past. That happened because Monster Hunter World had a Behemoth crossover event that was so good it made Final Fantasy 14 team feel like they needed to do better. Now Yoshida wants to raise the level of his team and make something even more amazing. The Omega Planetes event in Monster Hunter Wilds is the result of that effort.
This event is very different from normal Monster Hunter fights. The reason is that Omega Planetes is a mechanical creature. It is not a dragon or beast like many others. It is a machine that can move between dimensions and use very dangerous attacks. Because of that the battle feels very special. It looks unique and many players are already saying that it may become one of the best battles in the series.
If we look back at the Behemoth fight in Monster Hunter World we remember that players had to use roles like in an online role playing game. Some players had to defend. Some players had to heal. And some players had to attack. Behemoth also dropped comets from the sky and players had to hide behind them to survive very strong attacks. Now with Omega Planetes the fight will be even more complex. During the fight players will face dangerous clones of a monster called Nerscylla. These clones must be defeated. When a clone is defeated it creates a shield that can protect the player from Omega Planetes and its deadly dimension attacks. This means the battle is not only about hitting the monster but also about making choices at the right time.
During the fight players may also meet other creatures that come from Final Fantasy 14. These include Morbol Seedlings and also Cactuars. Both are very famous monsters in the Final Fantasy series. Their addition makes the fight feel like a true crossover between the two games. For Final Fantasy fans this is very exciting. For Monster Hunter fans this is also exciting because it adds new creatures that have never been seen in Monster Hunter before.
But the crossover does not stop only at monsters. Capcom is also bringing Final Fantasy jobs into the game through armor and weapons. One of the new sets is called the Bale Armor set. This set gives the player a skill called Soul of the Dark Knight. In Final Fantasy 14 the Dark Knight is one of the most iconic jobs. It is known for its powerful ability called The Blackest Knight. This ability lets the Dark Knight create a shield that can protect against strong enemy attacks. In Monster Hunter Wilds the skill is changed a little. It works like a consumable item. The player can use a part of their health to make a barrier. Because Monster Hunter does not use mana like Final Fantasy 14 this new version takes health instead.
There is also a new weapon skill for the Greatsword called Shadowbringer. Capcom has not explained all the details about this ability. But in Final Fantasy 14 the Blackest Knight has a special effect. When the shield breaks it gives the Dark Knight a buff that makes them stronger. Many players think that in Monster Hunter Wilds the Shadowbringer skill will connect with the barrier from the Bale Armor. This means if the barrier breaks then the Greatsword attack may become stronger. If this is true then players will feel very satisfied because it creates a connection between the shield and the attack.
Another Final Fantasy job coming to Monster Hunter Wilds is the Pictomancer. Normally many people would expect this to be only a fun emote. But Capcom is going further. They are making it a real combat option. The player will be able to cast a three spell sequence that deals real damage to enemies. This makes it more than just a joke. It becomes a real part of the game. Because these things are added through free updates there is no problem in making them strong. It gives players more fun and makes the crossover feel real.
Some people may wonder if this event will really work well. But many fans are already confident. The reason is that Capcom has made similar events before. One example is the Street Fighter crossover event where players could play as Akuma. In that fight the player had completely new moves like punches and kicks and fireballs. It felt like a new character inside Monster Hunter. Many fans loved that event. Because of that history players now believe that the Omega Planetes event will also be very good.
The launch of Monster Hunter Wilds Free Title Update 3 is set for Monday September 29. Players must be at least Hunter Rank 41 or higher. They also must finish a mission called What Lies Ahead before they can fight Omega Planetes. In addition to the big update there will also be a seasonal event called the Festival of Accord Dreamspell. This event will run from Wednesday October 22 until Wednesday November 12. During this time players can enjoy special quests and rewards.
All these details show how much work Capcom is putting into Monster Hunter Wilds. The game is not only about hunting monsters anymore. It is also about creating new experiences through crossovers and creative battles. The return of Gogmazios is big news. But the Omega Planetes event may become the true star of the update.
When we put everything together we see that Monster Hunter Wilds is giving players many reasons to keep playing. Old fans will enjoy seeing Gogmazios again. Final Fantasy 14 fans will enjoy the crossover content. New players will have many exciting things to discover. The game is building a bridge between two of the most loved role playing games of modern times. This is why many players are calling it one of the most ambitious updates in the history of Monster Hunter.
