Release date - 26th of January (unlock at 0:00 so in few hours) 2018 PS4/Xbox, Fall 2018 PC.
Monster Hunter World is 5th generation monster hunter game and after a long while of franchise being exclusive to Nintendo systems it finally goes out open for people to play on their own system of choice. While game is yet to be released on PC in fall 2018, today is the day when it comes out on consoles (midnight). While it is 5th main monster hunter game it is also the best game to get into mh games. It as game where coop is also when of key aspects. While everything in game can be achieved solo you can team up with 3 other friends and do all those quests together.
It is also the biggest change for whole series since initial start on PS2 console. Developers while creating Monster Hunter 5th have gone back to initial Monster Hunter on PS2 and tried revisit what they tried to achieve with that game. Product of that is Monster Hunter World something that for fans of Monster Hunter feels like true Monster Hunter 2 than 5. It is the biggest change to everything in MH from all other mh games. Everything was put on table and from that amalgamation of things they distilled core of what makes Monster Hunter such a good game in first place and then they added elements that they always wanted to to implement but they never were able because of power of consoles at the time of making MH1 didn't allow them to do it.
Monster Hunter World is THE Monster Hunter 2 we never got. Everything in is new. Graphics, sounds, general design of game changed from cage fights to whole ecosystems you can use while playing, boring gathering quests as requirement for progression are gone, shitty animations that never made sense were revisited or scrapped, story that never was part of any mh game until MH4 is now in full force to ease you into gameplay loop which at start it hard to grasp but in few hours you will be addicted to it like crystal meth. Every monster is now vastly different, they feel like animals now and not just like monsters, they fallow their own needs in environment and they generally don't really care for player at all until player actually tries to tackle it, lost are distinction between gunner and blademaster armor that never made any sense and kept you from playing other weapons and each weapon got revisited and improved to point where combat system is possible one of the best in genre.
If you are fan of Dark Souls combat then this is also game for you. It adheres to same values which DS combat represents while at the same time being even more technical and raw than DS combat itself. I fully expect when it releases on PC that it will have strong PC community around it. It already has but it never even released on PC so people have beed using emulators or were playing shitty online version for chinese market. The thirst is real and i fully expect codexers here to also appreciate it as connoisseurs of good shit.
If you are fan of Fashion Souls then Monster Hunter will blow your mind with hundreds of weapons and thousands of pieces of armor and almost absolutely no repeated recolored content. This is ultimate OCD worst fear game. If you just follow the story you will play about 50-60 hours but if you want to hunt everything there is and best the game, collect armor and weapons you are talking at average 1000 hours as proven by almost every other MH game. Game also will be updated regularly with new monsters to hunt, variations and special quest which will give you even more stuff to do. Then after a year of playing and thinking you bested MHW you will be presented with G/Ultimate version expansion that will make you hide in your corner and rethink your life choices because new content will be so fucking hard that you will need to stay at the top of your game to beat it.
This is the monster hunter the fans have been always wanting to play, they are screaming on top of their lungs that this is fucking good game and you need to play it because you are missing out. Which also partially reason i made this introduction. It is fucking amazing game gents. Problem was always initial few hours and MHW does everything to fix that so people can get addicted to it like rest of people including me.
