Capcom Co., Ltd. (Capcom) today announced that Monster Hunter World: Iceborne<\/em> (MHW:I<\/em>, below), launching September 6, will be featured in a first-time collaboration with Tottori City, scheduled to run from September 28 through October 31.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Monster Hunter<\/em> series consists of hunting action games that pit players against giant monsters in a beautiful natural environment. The series has sparked a social phenomenon known as the "Monster Hunter Craze" by introducing a new kind of communication style for players through cooperative play focused on hunting monsters with their friends. Since the first Monster Hunter<\/em> title made its debut 15 years ago in 2004, the series has attracted a dedicated fan base, and overall grown into a mega-hit, with cumulative sales of the series exceeding 55 million units*. Further, MHW:I<\/em> is scheduled to launch on September 6, as a massive premium expansion to Monster Hunter: World<\/em>, which is Capcom’s best-selling game of all time, having shipped more than 13.1 million units*.<\/p>\n\n\n

This collaboration with Tottori City came to be following a proposal from the city to render the vast world and awe-inspiring monsters from Monster Hunter<\/em> in the finely detailed yet visually powerful sand sculpture art, which serves as both the pride of Tottori and a source of its tourism, in order to more widely spread the appeal of the sculptures. In addition to a sand sculpture featuring monsters from MHW:I<\/em> on display in front of Tottori Station, a stamp rally leading participants to five locations around the city will run throughout the collaboration period. With this, Capcom aims to not only further increase awareness of MHW:I<\/em>, but also lend support to Tottori’s tourism through broadcasting the appeal of the city’s sand sculptures to a wider audience.<\/p>\n\n\n

Capcom is committed to serving as a responsible corporate citizen and will continue to conduct proactive CSR activities that include the use of its games to invigorate communities and contribute to society.<\/p>\n\n
