If you haven’t played it … you got to give it a try!
Monster Hunter franchise, which historically had been one of Japan’s biggest game series, but also one that failed to garner much global attention. But that all changed with last year’s Monster Hunter: World, which to date has sold more than 12 million copies, making it Capcom’s best-selling game of all time. “To be honest, it still doesn’t feel like it’s real,” Fujioka told The Verge last week at E3 in Los Angeles. “The fact that, all these years later, I’ve made this game that goes beyond all of those, at some level it feels unreal to me.”
His next task is to make that experience even bigger. In September, Capcom will launch Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, the first major expansion for the game. As the name implies, Iceborne introduces a new arctic region, which developers say will be the largest locale in the game so far. The original World introduced a number of changes to make the experience more approachable — namely offering a huge world to explore and launching on consoles and PC instead of handhelds — and Iceborne looks to build on that template.
