Forums - Gaming Discussion - Capcom Not Bringing Switch Version Of Monster Hunter XX To The US

Shikamo on 14 June 2017

The company confirms it has no plans to localize the title.

Capcom confirmed to GameSpot that it has no plans to localize the recently announced Nintendo Switch version of Monster Hunter XX.

Originally released in Japan for 3DS earlier this year, Monster Hunter XX is an expanded version of Monster Hunter Generations, featuring additional quests, monsters, and other content. Capcom announced a Switch release for the game last month. In addition to high-resolution visuals, the Switch version also supports online cross-platform play with the 3DS game. Players can also transfer their save data over from the 3DS release to Switch.

''We want to make Monster Hunter more popular in the west''
''How are you planning to do that?''
''By not releasing it in the west''

well that is a shame, but it underperformed in Japan iirc, so i'm sure they expect even worse performance comparatively in the west

This is either very stupid or very scummy, I have no idea what's Capcom's plan other than push MH World. Are they also ignoring the 3DS version?



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Hmm, I wish it had an actual quote, instead of the way the article is currently, where it says that they confirmed without showing what they actually said.

Uhuuu..this lends futher credence to that leak. According to that Capcom is in full on panic mode because Switch is actually selling well, but they sold MH Worlds exclusivity/all platforms but Switch to Sony. Part of that deal is supposedly that Nintendo still recieves handheld MHs but doesn't help with localization anymore.
