How’s the hunting? We hope Astera and Seliana are treating you well!
Following on from our Capcom Online Program at Tokyo Game Show last week, we’re humbled and excited to share with you that March 2024 will mark 20 years since the release of the very first Monster Hunter game in Japan.
To you, our global community of hunters, thank you!
As we begin to mark the occasion, the team have created a special Monster Hunter 20th anniversary logo featuring one of the key things that defines our identities as hunters, our weapons!
To coincide with the logo reveal, we’ve also got our first piece in the 20th anniversary art series to share with you, putting a spotlight on hunters!
Can you spot any of your favourite sets in there?
There will be more announcements for the 20th anniversary in the future! We’ll be sharing details on these across our official channels, including our official website and Twitter account, so make sure to stay tuned there!
Whether you first become a hunter with World, or joined the hunt a little earlier into our 20 years of Monster Hunter, thank you, it’s great to have you on this adventure with us!
