Monster Hunter: World, Capcom’s newest action-RPG about looking dinosaurs so you may pores and skin them and put on their faces as gloves serving to you hunt larger dinosaurs to put on their faces as larger gloves, is coming to PC far later than I’d imagined. Capcom have mentioned that the PC model would come a while after the console launch of January 26th, and as we speak confirmed fairly how late it’s going to arrive: in autumn 2018. I suppose I used to be anticipating six weeks tops. Oh effectively.
Producer Ryozo Tsujimoto broke the unhealthy information in a small video update as we speak.
“As for the PC version, we’re working hard on it right now, and aiming for an autumn 2018 release,” Tsujimoto mentioned. “We’ll update you with more details later and thank you for your patience.”
Right-o. That’s that, then.
It may be tempting to choose over statements (the tweet delivering Tsujimoto’s video makes use of barely totally different wording, saying the sport “is currently being optimized for PC”) and guess at what’s behind this unusually lengthy hold-up, however that hypothesis isn’t productive – or appropriate. I’ll merely say I’m disenchanted that this can be so late on PC.
Given that it’s the primary foremost Monster Hunter sport coming to PC, I’d hoped to be considerably in sync with consolechums and their conversations across the sport. Instead, we’ll arrive late to a sport whose depths and secrets and techniques are already recognized and well-documented, when the mud has settled on the discourse and it’ll be a problem to interrupt by way of that and expertise the sport contemporary.
In the RPS treehouse we’re presently attempting to peel off the sleeping John’s face to make into gloves to console Katharine, as she has been looking forward to this.
