April 19, 2010 in Video comments 8

Monster Hunter Tri is set to release in stores, for the Nintendo Wii, tomorrow and in anticipation of its release Capcom has released the official launch trailer for fans of the series to enjoy. For those of you who have not made up your mind about purchasing this game or not, this video will hopefully help you in deciding whether or not this is a game you will be interested in.

Players will venture forth into the Monster Hunter world as they complete quests not only for money and items, but to also increase the status of Moga Village, which has been devastated by earthquakes. Player will return home with their quest items that can be used to repair some of the damage done by the earthquakes and will ultimately increase the happiness of the villagers which will make them more active and in turn make the village a better place to live.

The newest installment of the Monster Hunter series (released in the U.S.) will offer some improvements on key features, including an enhanced single player mode will introduce players to the game mechanics slowly, which will make things easier for them when they do decide to experience the world online with friends, which will offer up to four player co-op via the Nintendo Wii’s Wi-Fi.

    The launch trailer was really well made. Should prove to be good marketing.

        Easy to do when the game IS good.

        Why isn't it on PS3?

    Because the director and producer said "We want to take the series in a new direction," and then the Wii was announced.

        Not really, it was more of "We want something new to work with," since after three titles on one they wanted to try some new. You could look up their Iwata Asks interview for the full explanation.

        And even then, Portable 3rd has been announced and its taken a lot of what they made with Tri and adding more though taking away the swimming and the creatures that come along with it.

        Capcom hasn't really been a company to keep going along with the safe and easy same old, same old thing. They've made major changes to all of their series and its usually gone with a console jump.

        There's also the fact that the game started on the PS2 and PSP was never a really profitable console anywhere before Monster Hunter(in Japan anyway, out here it's just above average sales though Tri sold amazingly.)

    Wait, this game STILL isn't out yet for the US?

    Holy crap. I haven't been keeping up with this game so bare with me but still, didn't the japanese version release like a year ago?

      Been out two weeks, came out last fall in Japan, so not even a year which makes this their fastest port in the series.
