Capcom is gearing up to mark a significant milestone for their beloved franchise with a Monster Hunter 20th Anniversary live broadcast scheduled for this month. The broadcast is set to take place on March 12th, 4 AM Pacific Time / 7 AM Eastern Time and will be streamed on YouTube, offering fans a chance to be part of the celebrations.
Originally launched on March 11th, 2004, the Monster Hunter series has captivated gamers for two decades with its unique blend of cooperative gameplay and monster-hunting adventures. The first game, titled “Monster Hunter,” made its debut on the PlayStation 2, laying the groundwork for a series that would grow to become a global phenomenon.
Those looking forward to hearing about new game announcements or getting updates on upcoming titles, such as “Monster Hunter Wilds,” should set their expectations accordingly. Capcom has clarified that this event is dedicated entirely to honoring the franchise’s legacy and will not feature new game information.
The anniversary event promises to be a treat for longtime fans of the series. Capcom intends to announce the results of the top 10 overall Monster General Election ranking. Additionally, viewers will be invited to a talk session featuring directors of the Monster Hunter series. Adding to the festivities, there will be an inside look at the Monster Hunter Festival at Universal Studios Japan, showcasing how the franchise has extended its reach beyond video games into broader entertainment experiences.
As the Monster Hunter community celebrates two decades of epic battles and camaraderie, this broadcast provides a platform for reflection on past achievements and the series’ journey thus far. Whether you’re a seasoned hunter or a newcomer to the series, the Monster Hunter 20th Anniversary event looks to unite fans in appreciation of this iconic gaming franchise.
