To end The Game Awards, Capcom unveiled the next major entry in the Monster Hunter series. It's called Monster Hunter Wilds and it will be released on multiple next-generation platforms in 2025.
The unfortunate catch here is that there's no mention of Nintendo platforms, but given the series' history, anything could happen. This new game will follow the 20th anniversary celebrations of the Monster Hunter franchise early next year.
Here's a special message from Monster Hunter series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto about the new game Monster Hunter Wilds:
Ryozo Tsujimoto: "This announcement is just the start, so there's a lot about the game we can't go into detai about yet. THe game features a new level of detailed creatures and ecosystems, so please enjoy dissecting the trailer to get an idea of what to expect!
