Monster Hunter World Tops 20 Million Units Sold

Monster Hunter World was for many the first introduction to Capcom's long-running series. Delivering an outstanding adventure with over 100 hours of hunts. Now the acclaimed title has reached 20 million units shipped, including the expansion Iceborne.

Capcom stated:

In recent years, Capcom's promotion of digital sales has enabled it to realize long-term, global sales for its major titles. With the January 2018 release of Monster Hunter: World in particular, Capcom was able to propel the Monster Hunter series to global-brand status with a series-first worldwide simultaneous launch coupled with international promotional activities, establishing the game as Capcom's best-selling title of all time within a month of its release and being honored with awards the world over. In the more than three years since the game's release, in addition to promoting digital sales, Capcom also launched Monster Hunter World: Iceborne (Iceborne, below), a massive premium expansion for the game, as well as a bundle containing both titles, capitalizing on synergies with Iceborne and resulting in prolonged sales that led Monster Hunter: World to achieve a Capcom all-time record of 20 million units shipped.

The latest installment, Monster Hunter Rise, sold 7.5 million units since launch on Switch will come to PC this January 13th. With the expansion Sunbreak coming for both platforms this Summer 2022.
