Monster Hunter Now

This is huge — love the integration of epic gameplay with real-world exploration thanks to Niantic's Lightship ARDK.

Hello everyone!! I'm Archit, Sr. Director of Product Marketing and Niantic and I'm super excited that we have released Monster Hunter Now worldwide. It's incredible to see player reactions from across the world and we're pumped to get this in front of product HUNTERS. :). Monster Hunter Now is the perfect combination of Niantic’s philosophy of exploring the world and the sheer fun of hunting and battling monsters together. Our Tokyo studio has been working hard in partnership with Capcom on this product for the last 4+ years -- there's been incredible thought and care to ensure that this game is a well-crafted adaptation of the mainline Monster Hunter series where you FEEL like a real Hunter as you explore your neighborhood or town. The feel of the weapons -- from the Great Swords heaviness to the nimbleness of a Sword and Shield -- has been meticulously designed. And this game uses our underlying Lightship platform technology to enable location-based gameplay and AR features wherein you can see majestic monsters in the physical world. Please give this a whirl and let us know what you all think! The Hunt starts now, Archit

@chrismessina Monster Hunter Now looks like an awesome mobile app adaptation of the original. One thing I did want to bring to the teams' attention ( but was unable to do so I tagged you) is there is no Maker associated with the product. Never seen that before and wondering if that was intent or if someone forgot to claim the product. Best, @david_mcanulty
