Monster Hunter Wilds' Popularity: A Winning Combination of Story, Immersion, and Crossplay

MH Wilds has achieved phenomenal sales, surpassing 8 million units in just three days—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 captivating storyline and high-quality voice acting as key contributors to its widespread appeal. He also emphasized the role of crossplay in uniting players across various platforms.
Last month, in an interview with GamesRadar+, Tsujimoto underscored the importance of the PC platform and the significant effort invested in enabling crossplay. Acknowledging the growing popularity of PC gaming in Japan and globally, he stated, "We worked very hard to achieve that this time around," explaining, "This means you can choose your preferred platform and seamlessly connect with friends online for hunts."
While Tsujimoto emphasizes the narrative, some fans have voiced differing opinions, citing lengthy travel sequences and unengaging dialogue as drawbacks. However, many acknowledge that the core appeal of Monster Hunter lies in its gameplay, not necessarily its story.
