Capcom and developer Niantic are gearing up for even more updates heading to Monster Hunter Now this month. Following a successful release in Japan last year, Monster Hunter Now hit 15 million downloads in six months, promoting a focus on a real-world Monster Hunter experience whilst hunting monsters with simple and authentic gameplay.
Like many mobile games, Monster Hunter Now makes use of a season system, with two – Vernal Invader, and Dancing in the Tempest – under its belt already, it’s time for the next major update centering on group hunts.
Niantic is set to debut a new system called Dimensional Links, which is a sort of evolution from the game’s concept of all of the monsters spawning into our world through Dimensional Rifts. The story here is that some of those monsters got entangled and became Dimensional Link monsters instead.
What this means is that they’re caught between worlds and these monsters can be in multiple places on Earth at the same time.
The way it works is, by tapping on a Dimensional Link monster, players can team up to hunt it with three other faraway hunters. If you’re inclined, you can also fight these monsters with a party of friends, but currently not with a local party and faraway hunters combined. Dimensional Link monsters can also not be captured for later. The whole idea is that this creates more opportunities to play with others, and opens up the game to newcomers as well.
On top of this announcement, Niantic revealed that Monster Hunter Now will launch a collaboration with popular YouTube personality MrBeast starting July 27. The team wanted to do something with meaningful integration and do this won’t just be something superficial – there’s a whole custom narrative built around MrBeast, his theming, and in-game items.
