Capcom said Monster Hunter: World has sold 25 million copies since its release in 2018. This makes World the best-selling single-player game in Capcom history, coinciding with the series' twentieth anniversary.
This is stated in the Capcom press release:
Celebrating its 20th anniversary in March 2024, the Monster Hunter series features hunting action games that pit players against giant monsters in beautiful natural environments. With the first game in 2004, the series pioneered a new genre where players hunt ferocious monsters with friends, and has since grown into a global phenomenon with cumulative series sales exceeding 97 million units as of December 31, 2023.
With nearly 100 million in worldwide sales, Monster Hunter is one of the most popular franchises of all time, putting it on par with games like Tomb Raider, Gran Turismo, WWE 2K and Battlefield. “Capcom remains a strong believer in meeting the expectations of all users by leveraging its leading game development capabilities to create highly engaging gaming experiences.”
The next iteration of the series, Monster Hunter: Wilds, will be released in 2025, reports Insider-Gaming. The first trailer for this game appeared in December.
