Directly answering the question: as of base release, Monster Hunter Wilds does not feature an Elder Dragon. The roster includes Gore Magala (which can become Shagaru Magala in other titles, but Shagaru Magala is not present at launch), and Arkveld is treated as the flagship monster, with Zoh Shia categorized as a Construct rather than an Elder Dragon. A returning Elder Dragon, Gogmazios, is slated to appear in Title Update 4, scheduled for December 2025. For ongoing clarification and updates, see coverage from Game8’s guide on Elder Dragons in Wilds and NME’s Elder Dragons guide; reporting on the update timeline is also reflected in GamesRadar’s December update coverage.
