Sort of-ish but also not really, it depends how you look at it. Due to Monster Hunter 4 not releasing worldwide and with Tri it also included a Wii version in 2009 and a 3DS version in 2011 which is such a big release date difference which was sure to bring in double dippers. If you do add in the Tri and 4 Ultimate versions (which was the first time 4 hit the west in any form) it saw an increase. Anyways Japan numbers only (which is where I was talking about for the decline for Monster Hunter Worlds sales) which is where 4 only released, it still saw an increase, not a decline. |
First we should wait for how World will perform before we make any early judgement I think. While yes it will not do 3DS numbers (simply because PS4 has a lower install base) I think there is enough potential there for it to grow in the west.
So let´s just see what happens.
