Monster Hunter World

Capcom’s legendary monster-hunting action RPG franchise steps out of the shadow of its younger siblings with Monster Hunter World. Set against multiple environmental backdrops, players will create their own hunter as they begin to craft their own legacy, tasked to investigate, and hunt monsters that have begun to act strangely, endangering the human settlements across the land. Players can go it alone or in teams of up to four as they cross arid deserts, lush jungles, and crystalline caves as they battle against some of the most powerful and inventive creatures the series has introduced.
