In a press release addressed to its investors And visible at this address, Capcom said that Monster Hunter Wilds sold more than 8 million copies in the space of only three days. A colossal success, and which proves that the new formula has definitively won the very general public.

As a comparison with Monster Hunter World in 2018, the 8 million sales had been made in the space of three months. It would be interesting to analyze the details of the sales of the game, both by platform, but also geographically, since according to some analysts, China had a fairly strong role in this stratospheric launch. We remember that among the 23 million sales for It Takes Two, half was made in the country of the world. It only remains for Capcom to correct the optimization on PC, which is undoubtedly the black point of Monster Hunter Wilds, the players who did not hesitate to make it known with ‘mixed “opinions on the Steam page of the game.
