How it feels

Hunting massive monsters in a living, breathing ecosystem feels strategic and thrilling, with a rewarding loop of crafting and upgrading gear.

What players say

Players praise the addictive grind and co-op fun, but are split on the story's forced solo cutscenes that make multiplayer clunky. The game offers deep weapon variety and a huge roster of monsters, though some find the repetition and difficulty spike with certain monsters brutal.
