More Details on Monster Hunter World Revealed

Capcom updated the official website of Monster Hunter World including videos and information on a recently revealed aerea named Rotten Vale, and on its monsters.

Rotten Vale

A deep valley that rests beneath the Coral Highlands. Monster corpses fall to the Vale from above, creating a layer of decomposing remains that seems to serve an important ecological role. Also unique to the Vale is the bacteria known as the effluvium, which devours organic matter.

Great Girros

A monster that scavenges for meals dropped from the Coral Highlands. It acts as the alpha leader of a Girros pack, and sports giant fangs that paralyze its prey.

Radobaan

A gigantic brute wyvern that eats the bones of carcasses found in the Rotten Vale, using some of it as armor. It also rolls into a ball as a form of attack and transportation.

Odogaron

A terrifying monster that scours the Rotten Vale for carrion. Its highly aggressive nature means that anything, be it monster or man, is a potential meal.

Gathering Hub

On top of the areas and monsters, we get a look at the Gathering Hub, which is a tavern that also serves as an online gathering place for up to sixteen hunters at the same time. From there you can decide to go on quests together, have a meal, simply char, or play arm wrestling.

In case you missed it, there’s a special crossover / collaboration happening with Horizon Zero Dawn as the game’s protagonist, Aloy, appears in the game as a DLC character. Needless to say, it’s PS4-exclusive but if you missed out on that, check it out right here. Capcom also recently shared more information about its expectations for the game.

Monster Hunter World will release worldwide on January 26th 2018 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. A PC release will be coming at a later date.

Pokdepinion: I’m getting more and more excited for the game. At the same time, pretty sure the PC version is going to be more interesting. Gonna need to power up my rig by the time the PC version is out.
