KFC And Monster Hunter Wilds Join Forces For Finger-Lickin’ In-Game Loot

Capcom has announced a new collaboration with KFC in Japan, themed around Monster Hunter Wilds. Starting on November 19, KFC branches will sell two limited-edition meals with unique packaging and codes for in-game items redeemable in Monster Hunter Wilds.

The packaging shows off art of a Felyne partner that accompanies players in Monster Hunter Wilds (via VGC), with the little critter cosplaying as KFC icon Colonel Sanders–complete with a trendy outfit and facial hair. The Feast Set comes with codes for a Luxury Ingredient Set of campfire cooking ingredients and the KFC Colonel Sanders Felyne charm, while the Spice Up Set includes a Hunting Item Set of consumable items and a KFC Barrel Felyne Charm. Upgrading a meal from standard to large will also get a themed sticker set.

Four KFC stores will also be decorated to make customers feel like they’ve entered the world of Monster Hunter, and the promotion will conclude on December 16. This isn’t the first time that KFC has partnered up with a well-known video game, as back in 2021, there was a crossover with Genshin Impact in China. That collaboration was unfortunately cut short over COVID-19 protocol violations.

Capcom has also teamed up with McDonald’s Japan last month to release a line of Street Fighter-themed burgers alongside free ketchup-and-mustard-inspired costumes for the game’s roster.

Meanwhile, Monster Hunter Wilds sales have continued to decline since launch, with Capcom reporting that it only sold 160,000 units of the game over its last financial quarter that ended on September 30, 2025. This is a major dip from the previous quarter that saw 477,000 sales of Monster Hunter Wilds, and Capcom president Haruhiro Tsujimoto suggested that the high price of the PS5–the “main platform” for Monster Hunter Wilds players in Japan–was hurting sales of the game in that region.
