Monster Hunter Outlanders Announcement

The beloved Monster Hunter franchise is making waves once again, this time bringing the thrill of monster hunting directly to your smartphone! Capcom has officially announced a collaboration with TiMi Studios—renowned for their work on popular titles like Call of Duty: Mobile and Pokémon Unite—to develop a new spinoff game titled Monster Hunter Outlanders.

Gameplay Features and Experience

This highly anticipated mobile game is described as an "open-world survival game" that allows players to embark on solo quests or team up with friends in cooperative play for groups of up to four. Expect to deeply engage with the quintessential elements that define a Monster Hunter experience: exploring vast landscapes, hunting formidable beasts, and crafting essential gear — all of which will be infused with the live service and social features typical of modern mobile games.

Franchise Evolution and Future Releases

Since the launch of Monster Hunter World in 2018, which catapulted Capcom into new heights as its best-selling game, the franchise has blossomed into a global phenomenon. From a live-action film adaptation to the introduction of Monster Hunter Rise and even a location-based mobile game developed with Pokémon GO creators Niantic, the franchise is growing rapidly. And if that wasn’t enough, fans can also look forward to Monster Hunter Wilds, slated for release next year, further expanding this expansive universe.

Anticipation Ahead of Release

With a history of hit titles under TiMi's belt and the franchise's legacy as a premier portable gaming experience, there’s reason for excitement regarding Monster Hunter Outlanders. While the game doesn’t yet have a confirmed release date, Capcom has promised that “several play tests” will occur prior to launch, allowing fans to get a sneak peek into this thrilling new adventure.

Conclusion

Stay tuned, hunter—this could very well set a new standard for mobile gaming within the revered Monster Hunter universe!
