“Prepare to enter a world where monsters roam your neighborhood and the thrill of the hunt is at your fingertips. ‘Monster Hunter Now’ is an exciting new mobile game developed by Niantic, the genius creators of ‘Pokemon Go,’ and Capcom, the masterminds behind the popular ‘Monster Hunter’ series. Using augmented reality (AR) technology, players can experience a new level of immersion as they hunt and fight iconic monsters from the franchise, such as the formidable Rathalos and the crafty Great Jagras.
With tap and swipe controls, players can engage in epic battles that last up to 75 seconds. The game features a unique paintball mechanic that allows players to tag a monster and finish the battle later at home or with friends. By defeating monsters, players can obtain materials to craft and upgrade weapons and armor.
For fans of the series, ‘Monster Hunter Now’ will feature a story mode with new and familiar characters, while a multiplayer mode will connect players who are hunting the same monster on the map. The game is designed to be accessible to both newcomers and veterans of the series, with a closed beta test starting on April 25. Interested players can register for the beta on the official ‘Monster Hunter Now’ website and indicate their level of experience with the series. Get ready to embark on a monster-hunting adventure like never before!”
