Monster Hunter World Reviews
As a first-time player of the series, Monster Hunter: World has given me unique experiences and memories that, for better or worse, other games will be measured against for years to come. That has to be a win.
Monster Hunter World successfully proves that it's both about size and how you use it.
MHW might sound repetitive but the dynamic and well-designed challenges make this a hugely entertaining title. An absurd UI shouldn't keep anyone enjoying the hunt.
For all its flaws, Monster Hunter: World is proof that a game can be more than the sum of its parts.
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.

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.
Monster Hunter World delivers more streamlined and engaging experience, but there is room for improvements in future installments.

Arriving eight months late on PC, everything that can be said about Monster Hunter World already has done. Rest assured though, the wait was indeed worth it. Anyone looking for a deep action game they can potentially invest hundreds of hours into need look no further. This is Monster Hunter, back and better than it's ever been before.

Monster Hunter World is an incredible game, the new consoles have simplified many old gameplay mechanics and the gameplay has an enviable variety and depths. Too bad about the lack of true innovative mechanics and the technical aspect.

The arrival of Monster Hunter World on PC is not as triumphant as you would have expected. However, excluding technical and netcode issues, Capcom's impressive creature scratches as on console. It is curated, full of details, endowed with a surprising artistic imagery, especially with regard to the aesthetics of monsters. And it is also a pleasure to play, to master in its meticulous facets of gameplay, in the mathematical refinement of a build. Whether you play it just to experience the intoxication of facing a legendary beast, or to be caught by the wildest farming, Monster Hunter World knows how to guarantee a lot of satisfaction. And its value also lies in the scalability of the experience that - it is true - is not yet perfect, but it has certainly taken the right path.

If you have the intestinal fortitude to dive in and learn a few complex systems you'll really be doing yourself a favor as Monster Hunter World is one of the best entries to the franchise we've seen yet.
Monster Hunter World takes a huge step towards a new audience, not simplifying, but simply optimizing the old overloaded mechanics. Old fans will be delighted. [OpenCritic note: Zelliel separately reviewed the PC (8) and PS4 (9) versions. The scores have been averaged.]

It may be a poor teacher with text-heavy interfaces, but Monster Hunter: World is a great entry into the franchise if you haven't played anything from the series thus far. It's polished and filled with content, and you'll regret not immersing yourself in the series sooner. It provides a challenging yet enjoyable combat system that will keep you on your toes, and the variety of menacing monsters adds new challenges and keeps things from getting dull. You'll happily trade hours of your free time for more monsters to hunt, capture, and slay.
From the gorgeous visuals to the design in its monsters and ecosystems, Capcom has made the best Monster Hunter game yet. It's just a shame it doesn't help with its complex systems an occasionally poor explanations of them.
Monster Hunter: World is a fantastic game that kept me enthralled for 60 wonderful hours. I loved exploring the world, discovering new areas, and engaging in epic fights with excellently designed monsters. There's so much gameplay to enjoy, that despite a few snags, I'd wholeheartedly recommend it to almost anyone.
Monster Hunter: World is the best entry in the long-running action RPG series to-date, accessible for both new players and returning fans expecting the in-depth gameplay systems and rewarding hunt/craft/explore loop we all know and love.
Monster Hunter: World's thrilling fights with fantastic beasts never get old, even if they require tiresome item management during downtime.
I had already pre-ordered the collectors edition of Monster Hunter World a few months ago. I was more or less excited for it I mean you know me, collectibles are kind of my thing! I was also lucky enough to get a two-fer! Dragon Ball Z Fighters also came out same day and I had pre-ordered the collectors of that. The collectors edition was not up to my standards and was kind of upsetting just from the stand point of what I got but that is a topic for another story. So on launch day I opened up the box, put the game in, and began downloading. A few minutes later (thank you Spectrum and Xbox) I was in game running around searching for meaning. 25 hours later I am comfortable giving my initial impressions and a score that will change as I get farther in game. Lets dive into the Good, Bad, and the Ugly.
Long story short, Monster Hunter: World looks like it will be one of the most successful games of 2018 with content that will keep you at the beginning of months and will not tighten, detailed and fun gameplay structure, co-op possibility, universe and world.
