Monster Hunter Now is a new mobile game in the Monster Hunter series that offers players an approachable hunting experience that can be enjoyed as part of everyday life and is being developed and distributed by Niantic, a company that boasts expertise in cutting-edge fields such as location-based technology and augmented reality. In the game, players take on the role of hunters and embark on an adventure during which they hunt vividly lifelike monsters that appear in the real world.
This new game blends the appeal of the Monster Hunter series with Niantic’s development technology, with features that allow players to team up with others for hunts, or to hunt monsters that were encountered while the app was closed later in their spare time. Anticipation for the game is high, with applicants for the closed beta test far exceeding the available slots, and the number of preregistered players now over 3 million people. Capcom will continue to work with Niantic on the game’s ongoing development to provide the fun of Monster Hunter to an even broader audience around the world.
Capcom is committed to delivering further growth while aiming to create new business opportunities and maximize the value of its game content. The company will also continue to utilize its leading brands in the growing worldwide mobile games market.
About the Monster Hunter series:

The series established a new genre in which players cooperate with their friends via a network and has since grown into a global phenomenon with cumulative sales of the series exceeding 94 million units shipped as of June 30, 2023.

Lenovo research highlights a growing AI execution gap as organizations struggle to control and operate AI across their environments AI is already being used across your organization, whether it has been formally approved or not. Employees are using AI with or without IT involvement, fueling the rise of ‘shadow AI’ across the enterprise, creating gaps in governance and control. This is no longer just an IT challenge.
