There Is A High Possibility That You Can't Play It Immediately After Release
The Steam version of Sunbreak and a few other titles were supposedly playable from midnight. However, it was only actually playable from approximately 7:00 to 15:00 on the same day. The same could happen to Monster Hunter Wilds.
Will There Be Cross-Play In The Steam Version?
Online Multiplayer Possible Across All Platforms
Cross-play is available in Monster Hunter Wilds across all the platforms it will be available in, including PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series X & S.
Cross-Play Can Be Toggled In-Game
Cross-Play in Wilds can be toggled on or off from the in-game options. Select "Enable" if you want to play multiplayer regardless of the platform or "Disable" if you want to play multiplayer with only players of the same platform.
No Cross-Save Available
Monster Hunter Wilds save data is per platform and cannot be shared across different platforms. You will not be able to transfer your save data either.
Can It Be Played On The Steam Deck?
Likely Will Be Playable On The Steam Deck
As long as the game is available on Steam, there is a good chance that it will be available for play on the Steam Deck. However, since it's a new gen game, it is best to play it on the PC instead of the Steam Deck since it is expected to be very demanding in terms of its specs.
