Monster Hunter Outlanders
Monster Hunter Outlanders is a mobile open-world hunting action RPG set on Aesoland, an island whose ecosystems are affected by a mysterious mineral called Radiantite. Players become Adventurers who explore large wilderness areas, track and fight powerful monsters, gather resources, and build facilities that make remote locations easier to navigate. Combat keeps familiar Monster Hunter weapon styles while giving individual Adventurers their own skills and combat roles. Players can hunt alone or form a four-player squad, with companion creatures called Buddies providing additional support during exploration and battles.

Platforms and availability
Monster Hunter Outlanders is confirmed for Android and iOS / iPadOS. Global pre-registration is available through Google Play and the App Store. The game is being designed specifically for mobile devices, with its controls and Monster Hunter combat adapted for smartphone and tablet play.
Gameplay and setting
Monster Hunter Outlanders takes place on Aesoland, an island containing large interconnected environments, diverse ecosystems, environmental creatures, field mechanisms, and changing weather conditions. A mineral called Radiantite has transformed some familiar monsters into Radiant Species with altered appearances, stronger abilities, and more aggressive behavior. Ruger Aidal is an original Elder Dragon created specifically for Outlanders.
Players control Adventurers who combine familiar Monster Hunter weapons with character-specific abilities. The official App Store listing identifies eight classic weapon types: Great Sword, Long Sword, Dual Blades, Hammer, Lance, Charge Blade, Heavy Bowgun, and Bow. Adventurers are divided into combat roles such as Assault, Disruptor, and Support, and different characters can use their weapon styles in distinct ways.
Exploration is part of the hunting loop rather than simply a path between battles. Players gather resources and construct facilities that can help them cross the environment, reach new locations, find useful items, and approach hunts differently. Companion characters called Buddies can accompany Adventurers, including Palicoes and the original companions Rutaco and Trillan. Hunts can be undertaken alone or with a squad of up to four players.
