Many are awaiting the release of Monster Hunter Wilds on Nintendo Switch 2, and recent datamines shown over on Reddit have revealed some more information on the upcoming title, including the inclusion of Local Wireless support and possible graphical settings.

The above screenshot obviously reveals that the Nintendo Switch 2 edition of the game will support up to 4 players in Local Wireless mode, meaning 4 nearby Switch 2 devices can play together without the need for the internet.

As for the rest of the data, this is found in strings of text, which includes confirmation that the Switch 2 version will take advantage of Nvidia's DLSS upscaling, as well as possible clues to how tuned down the settings will be on the system, with suggestions that NPCs (which includes monsters) will be culled at half the normal distance.

When Monster Hunter Wilds will launch on the Switch 2 is anyone's guess, but the next major update is planned for February 18th, so it would make sense if it were to launch around then.
