Monster Hunter Wilds Players Discover Captured Monsters Will Eventually Just Exit Stage Left

While many associate *Monster Hunter* with the thrill of the hunt, capturing monsters plays a surprisingly significant role. *Monster Hunter Wilds* players have stumbled upon a humorous quirk: captured monsters don't simply vanish; they get up and leave!

Reddit user RDGtheGreat, on r/MonsterHunter, shared this observation: after capturing a Nu Udra and waiting, the giant cephalopod simply ambled away. The scene sparked comparisons to a film wrap, adding a touch of lightheartedness to the game.

In-universe explanations are intriguing. The research team's lack of giant cages suggests a catch-and-release approach, aligning with Alma's and the team's overall attitude. This seemingly casual method adds a layer of realism and personality to the research process.

Regardless of lore, it's a charming detail. Capcom's inclusion of a dedicated animation, instead of a simple fade-out, shows attention to detail. The sight of a multi-limbed monster, now somewhat depleted, scurrying away is undeniably funny, but also subtly reveals more about the researchers' methods.
