E3 SHOWFLOOR VERDICT

For years the Monster Hunter games have been appearing on Nintendo handhelds – so you’ll share our glee at knowing this one is coming to PlayStation. Look at those incredible dino-likes; that’s the sort of texture and realism a handheld can never deliver. The confirmed details include four-player online co-op across maps said to be larger than any yet seen in the series, and it does this seamlessly without the need for loading times between zones. Most interesting of all, Monster Hunter World will enable Western and Eastern players to meet and trap dinos online together, a first for the series.
