Monster Hunter Wilds' Triumph: Story, Immersion, and Crossplay

MH Wilds has achieved phenomenal sales, surpassing 8 million units within just three days of its release, making it Capcom's fastest-selling title to date. In a March 10th interview with The Nikkei, series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto highlighted the game's strong narrative and immersive voice acting as key factors driving its popularity. He also emphasized the role of crossplay in connecting players across various platforms.

Last month, in an interview with GamesRadar+, Tsujimoto underscored the significance of the PC platform and the considerable effort invested in enabling crossplay. Acknowledging the PC market's growth in Japan and globally, he stated, "We worked very hard to achieve that this time around," explaining, "That means the choice is yours on which platform you want to play with, and then you can just go online and hunt with your friends."

While Tsujimoto emphasized the game's story, some fans hold differing opinions. Steam discussions reveal criticisms focusing on lengthy travel sequences and unengaging dialogue. However, many acknowledge that the core appeal of Monster Hunter lies in its gameplay, not necessarily its narrative.
