Monster Hunter World developers recently held a livestream on the game and shared some new details on the state of the game. First they showed a huge gameplay video that showed the hunter exploring the world alone, hunting the various monster leading to a 4 player co-op fight. In addition to the video, Capcom has confirmed some of the monsters that will be in the game but refused to reveal how many monsters will be available in the whole game.
The following monsters will be featured in Monster Hunter World: Great Jagras, Anjanath and Rathalos. Aside from them, there will be more monsters but Capcom hasn’t revealed them yet.
Monster Hunter World will also require PS Plus or Xbox Live Gold for multiplayer, as confirmed on the livestream. The game doesn’t have any other subscription requirement so don’t expect to pay for anything else. As for the multiplayer, you can form a lobby with players for the co-op. The game also support voice and text chat for the in-game multiplayer.
Monster Hunter World will be released in early 2018 for the PS4, Xbox One and PC. Capcom is planning a worldwide launch for the game. They have also confirmed they have no plans for a possible Switch version.
