Get ready for Monster Hunter Outlanders: Open-World Hunting in Your Pocket!
Capcom and TiMi Studio Group (the minds behind Pokemon Unite) are bringing the thrill of monster hunting to mobile with Monster Hunter Outlanders. This free-to-play, open-world survival RPG lets you hunt anytime, anywhere.
Explore expansive environments, from lush grasslands to shimmering lakes, encountering monsters in their natural habitats. The game aims to retain the core Monster Hunter experience while optimizing controls for mobile. While a release date is unconfirmed, playtests are planned for Android and iOS. Sign up on the official website for updates and beta test opportunities.
Stunning visuals, courtesy of TiMi Studio's mobile game expertise, are expected. Gameplay footage suggests graphics rivaling Monster Hunter Rise on the Switch, though minimum device requirements remain unannounced. A website survey hints at compatibility with Snapdragon processors ranging from the 8 Gen 3 to the 845.
Key Features:
- Vast Open World: Seamlessly connected forests, swamps, and deserts with dynamic weather and a living ecosystem, even featuring monster turf wars.
- Familiar and New Monsters: Hunt returning favorites like Diablos and Rathalos, alongside a mysterious new monster shrouded in clouds. Environmental conditions may trigger monster mutations.
- Mobile-Optimized Combat: While specifics are limited, available footage indicates many weapon mechanics will be preserved, adapted for touch controls.

- Character Selection: Choose from a roster of characters, each with unique personalities, stories, weapons, and skills. Weapon and armor customization is confirmed. In-app purchases suggest a gacha element for character acquisition.
- New Buddies: Beyond Palicos, Outlanders introduces unique buddies, including a monkey and a bird, to aid in gathering and hunting.
