Capcom has introduced an exciting new feature in *Monster Hunter Wilds* that allows players to customize their hunter and Palico appearances. While the first edit is complimentary, any further modifications require purchasing Character Edit Vouchers. These vouchers come in packs of three for $6, or you can snag a combo pack for both characters for just $10. Without these vouchers, your customization options are limited to hairstyles, eyebrow color, makeup, and clothing—core facial features remain off-limits unless you buy in.

This monetization strategy was kept under wraps during the game's initial previews, only being revealed last week through Capcom's social media platforms. Despite sparking debates about microtransactions and performance hiccups, *Monster Hunter Wilds* shattered records by reaching over 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam right at launch.
Capcom has not yet responded to the community's feedback on this new feature. Players have voiced their frustration over the paid customization model, drawing unfavorable comparisons to earlier games in the series where such changes were either free or could be unlocked with in-game currency. Many fans argue that this move detracts from a core element that defined the franchise's appeal.
