How to play solo guide in Monster Hunter Wilds. Check out the guide on how to play on a solo lobby, how to play with no party, soloplayer guide, and how to play alone online.
How To Play Solo
Leave Lobby Alone Online For 30 minutes To Switch To Solo Play
If you enter the lobby and do nothing for about 30 minutes, it will automatically switch to "Solo Online". In this state, you will be completely solo, and no other players will be visible around you.
Pausing Becomes Available
The "pause" function is unavailable when playing online, but it will be available during solo online play. Pause can completely stop the status even during battle, which is useful during personal emergencies.
Players Cannot Create Solo Lobbies
As of the open beta, there is no lobby creation function, so you are not able to create a lobby for your own. However, it may become available in future updates.
If Waiting Is A Hassle For You, We Recommend Joining A Lobby With Few People
| Search Lobbies with few people Settings | |
|---|---|
| Join from Recommended Lobby | Disable |
| Language | Same language as yours |
If you don't want to leave your hunter alone for about 30 minutes, you can try searching for a lobby with fewer people. Talk to Alma, search, and join from the recommended lobbies by selecting "Unable to Join" and setting the language to the "same language as yours" from the lobby search.
