It won’t be much longer now until Capcom’s highly anticipated action role-playing gameMonster Hunter Worldwill release for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, but PC players will have to wait untilautumn 2018to receive the title. And if the first review for the forthcoming release is anything to go by, then PC fans might have trouble exercising patience, as it has given the game an almost perfect score.
According to this week’s issue of the popular Japanese magazine Famitsu, the publication apparently reveresMonster Hunter Worldso greatly that it almost gave the title the status of a classic in its rankings by giving it a review score of 39 out of 40. Based on a rough translation of the write-up using Google Translate, Capcom’s impending action-RPG received such high praise due to the game being a successful evolution of the series by offering an ease-of-play that accommodates both newcomers and those familiar with the franchise.
Should North AmericanMonster Hunter Worldfans on PlayStation 4 want to get a taste of the action and see what all the fuss is about before its release next week, Capcom has partnered with Sony for the game’s final beta, which is set to take part on January 18 through January 22. The last beta will include the previously released Great Jagras, Anjanath, and Barroth quests, as well as a battle against Nergigante. Bearing all of this in mind, it’s quite possible that Famitsu’s almost perfect review score could wind up coloring some fans' opinions of the game and drive them toward buyingMonster Hunter Worldon day one without even giving the beta a go.
Monster Hunter Worldis set to launch on July 19, 2025 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and will release sometime in autumn 2018 for PC.
