Because of Monster Hunter Wilds‘ latest beta exams and ever-closer launch date (twenty eighth Feb), all eyes are on what’s subsequent for the sequence. Importantly, this can be a next-gen entry and, regardless of the needs of Capcom’s buyers, meaning it is not scheduled to return to Swap.
However what about Swap 2? That is what sequence producer Ryozo Tsujimoto and director Yuya Tokuda have been requested in a latest interview with Spanish outlet Gamereactor. Whereas the pair clearly did not spill the beans on any type of Swap 2 affirmation, Tsujimoto did share some perception into the workforce’s ideas on the upcoming {hardware}: particularly, they need extra data too.
The Monster Hunter producer mentioned that he is “in the identical place everybody else is with the Swap 2”. Whereas the workforce might be wanting into “the character of the {hardware} and the way we’ll be utilizing it greatest” sooner or later, Tsujimoto mentioned that there is nothing to be introduced in the meanwhile.
You may discover the producer’s full quote under, as translated by Gamereactor:
After all, with relation to platforms for Monster Hunter Wilds, we’ve got nothing further to announce past what’s already on the market. However we’re additionally type of in the identical place everybody else is with the Swap 2. It is such a model new announcement, and we’d must take time over the approaching future to be taught precisely the character of the {hardware} and the way we’ll be utilizing it greatest. And that is one thing that’s going to be sooner or later for us.
Hmm. We wrestle to imagine {that a} workforce as massive as Capcom has been saved at midnight about Swap 2 and its capabilities, although Tsujimoto does hit on an necessary level there: we don’t know how highly effective the {hardware} goes to be. We have heard rumours that Nintendo is mustering PS4-level juice in its subsequent hybrid, however Wilds is about to be a massive recreation; will the Swap 2 even have the ability to deal with it?
We now have to imagine that Tsujimoto already is aware of the reply to that, however for now, no less than, we’ll be ready for the official phrase from Nintendo earlier than we set our hearts on the subsequent Monster Hunter entry coming our approach.
