While Monster Hunter: World pulls off the same satisfying style of hunting in a way that makes the setting feel more alive and more approachable for new players, there’s still room for improvement. Capcom are kings of the iterative sequel, so I’m sure that we’ll see even more monsters and hopefully a rethink of the multiplayer matchmaking in the near future.

The improvements are a refreshing change for long-time players, and Capcom was able to revitalize the series for a new generation. A game that's truly deserving of its subtitle regarding reach and depth.

Monster Hunter World is an ever-evolving game which will never be over. It appears the game is following its 3DS counterparts with free content being added regularly in order to keep things fresh and new. Sure, some of the hunts can take a while and the game is clearly built on a social platform rather than a single-player experience, but it's enjoyable in both aspects and delivers a game which you can enjoy both on your own and with other people, even if they are strangers

So, what’s my final verdict on Monster Hunter: World? All in all, Monster Hunter: World is a beautiful, terrifyingly primal experience that sits among the best… Whilst also being somewhat of a regression for this beloved franchise – Beginners are both wholeheartedly accepted, yet left adrift by a lack of guidance or assistance, and the smaller pool of monsters leaves a lot of room to be filled (Possibly through DLC or expansions); Monster Hunter: World throws players, new and old, into a brand new world, with brand new experiences lying in wait around every corner… It just needed that little bit more polish to make the deal even sweeter.

I could play this game for so many more hours and still feel like I was learning something new and just scratching the surface at the same time. Monster Hunter: World isn't going to be for everyone with its challenge and controls, but for those who embrace the life of the hunter, there are so many good things to experience.

Monster Hunter: World successfully implements new approaches and delivers a multi-faceted and dynamic combat system. Even if some opponents don't show mercy, the player will never be left alone thanks to numerous help and tutorials. The detailed ecosystem and interacting inhabitants give the game a welcome depth and make the title a feast for the eyes even if you leave the blade stuck once. All in all, Monster Hunter sees: World doesn't just look great, it makes the once dusty image of the series a thing of the past.

Monster Hunter has a basic formula that makes it work incredibly well, it is about hunting monsters in order to collect parts of them and thus be able to build more powerful weapons and armor to be able to kill or capture the following monsters. This is terribly addictive and even more so if we play with friends online. Monster Hunter World is the best

Monster Hunter World has become a monstrous and beastly good game. First of all, let's say that it is virtually impossible to paint such a complete and accurate picture of this adventure. The vibrant world of 'The New World' encompasses so many monsters, secrets and resources that you could dedicate a book to it.‎
