Monster Hunter: World is Capcom's pivotal entry that moved the series to a realistic, seamless open world. As a hunter sent to the New World, players track giant monsters that live naturally within ecosystems and interact with each other, hunting them and crafting weapons and armor from their parts. The shift from the series' previous, more menu-based structure to a seamless, fluid open-world experience opened the game to a global audience, making it the series' best-selling title. The massive Iceborne expansion added further content, maps, and monsters.
