Monster Hunter-serien er i den grad blevet et stort hit for Capcom, og det seneste spil i serien, Monster Hunter: World har indtil videre solgt over 15 millioner eksemplarer globalt.
Capcom havde dog ikke selv ventet, at spillet ville nyde så stor succes. I et nyligt interview (via Gamingbolt) med Ryozo Tsjumoto, der er Head of Consumer Games hos Capcom, fortalte han nemlig, at studiet i første omgang sigtede efter fem millioner eksemplarer:
"We'd always felt that selling 5 million copies was our first major goal, so we're very happy that we were able to clear that hurdle by such a wide margin. There are still players out there who have yet to be introduced to World, and as a producer I want to push its numbers even higher."
Hvad mon deres næste salgsmål er for spillet?
