Hunt, craft, track and survive. Embark on a perilous hunting expedition into a newly discovered continent known only as ‘The New World’. Prowl its uncharted wilds in search of the land’s most ferocious beasts in Monster Hunter: World. Each new foe you discover will pose a unique challenge, demanding careful planning and a hunter’s instinct to bring it down. Use a vast array of traps, lures, and weapons as well as the living ecosystem around you to overcome your quarry. Carcasses can be harvested for materials to upgrade and augment your arsenal, while the environment itself can tip the battle in your favor, providing cover, vantage points, and even allowing you to pit monsters against one another. This world is yours to explore as you choose, either as a lone warrior on the path to glory, or with up to three other players online in drop-in, drop-out cooperative play.
