Did you ever think to yourself, a new Monster Hunter game about now would be nice? The developers over at Niantic and Capcom have answered your prayers and delivered a brand new game, Monster Hunter Now. This mobile port of the popular RPG franchise from PC and other platforms has been teased and is thus far looking very good. Following Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, this is the next spinoff installment in the series. And how can a monster hunter game be complete without a ton of monsters for players to fight?
Monster Hunter Now partially follows the footsteps of Pokemon Go. Like Pokemon Go, the game features AR elements that require players to roam the real world in search of monsters and fight them. There are also going to be big seasonal updates, with various monsters and new weapons making their way into the game. This is going to be very interesting since the Pokemon Go approach of Niantic for the Pokemon franchise brought in a lot of new players. This makes it possible for new players to enter the Monster Hunter franchise as well. That said, if you are new to the game and have no idea about the monsters featured in it, here’s everything you need to know.
Monster Hunter Now: All Monster List
The allure of any good Monster Hunter game is the monsters themselves. While this version does not introduce any new and unique monsters, it does feature the old ones. At launch, you will be able to find and battle these larger-than-life monsters in-game:
- Rathalos
- Great Jagras
- Anjanath
- Rathian
- Barroth
- Pukei-Pukei
- Legiana
- Tobi-Kadachi
- Great Girros
- Diablos
- Kulu-Ya-Ku
- Paolumu
- Jyuratodus
Each of these monsters has made its debut in a previous Monster Hunter game, and therefore, a lot is known about them. While this makes the list less interesting than if the monsters were brand new, it makes it possible for newer players to fight these monsters and get a taste of their counterparts in the mainline entries. Their weaknesses and strengths remain the same, and players that are used to the franchise will easily be able to fight them.
Can you fight all the monsters?
Yes, you can, but not every monster will be on the same level as your current progress. This is why the game introduces a new paintball feature that’s quite helpful for beginners. What this essentially does is make it possible for you to save a monster encounter for later. Since this game, like Pokemon Go, brings monsters to the real world, it is possible that you encounter a monster that is too powerful to beat. This paintball feature makes it possible for you to mark that encounter and fight the monster later on after you progress further.
Will there ever be new Monsters?
Well, the chances of new monsters being added to MHN are quite high since the developers have shared that they would love to introduce new and unique monsters eventually. It is possible that, with enough time and seasonal updates, the developers will introduce new monsters to the roster for players to fight. But, as of now, there is no confirmation on the same, or regarding the release date.
