Monster Hunter Series Sells Over 100 Million Globally

Capcom has announced that worldwide sales of the Monster Hunter games have exceeded 100 million copies as of the franchise’s 20th anniversary. Monster Hunter Rise, the latest installment, contributed more than 15 million units to this significant achievement, while Rise expansion Sunbreak has sold over eight million.

Hunters, you've helped the Monster Hunter series reach the milestone of 100 million units sold worldwide! Thank you to everyone for your support over the last 20 years.

Earlier this year, the company also shared that Monster Hunter: World (plus the Iceborne expansion) has sold over 25 million units worldwide. It’s by far Capcom’s best-selling title of all time and the one that has contributed the most to the 100 million units milestone. Personally, it’s my favorite and most-played title in the series. Our Iceborne PC review and Sunbreak Switch review, which rate their respective games highly, speak for themselves.

With the impending release of Wilds in 2025, I wouldn’t be surprised if that eventually tops the total sales of World. Fans are surely craving a next-gen game for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. 

Stay tuned to RPGFan for MH Wilds updates before it launches next year!
