While PC players wait until autumn, Monster Hunter World will get free post-launch updates, including new monsters and quests.

Announced at E3 2017, the new more western-influenced Monster Hunter boasts larger maps, bigger monsters, and up to four player online global quests. No exact release date for Monster Hunter World‘s PC port was given. In addition, a Nintendo Switch port also remains elusive.
