One of Japan's biggest franchises is making the jump to Japan's hottest dedicated gaming device.
Capcom has announced that Monster Hunter XX will be coming to the Nintendo Switch, though no release date has been given. The game has sold over 1.5m copies on 3DS to date according to Media Create, despite launching in Japan the week after the Switch did.
The announcement webpage indicates that more information will be forthcoming at the "Monster Hunter Championships 2017" event in Japan on Saturday.
I hope it looks great with the more powerful hardware. It would be a disappointment if it were some quick-and-dirty up-rez.Considering that Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on Wii U was a quick 'n dirty up-rez, I think that's what we can expect from this, especially if there is cross-play like MH3U had between Wii U and 3DS.
I called it! I so called it! People doubted me, but I saw the signs! Super stoked.Who doubted it...?

I'm glad to see this simply because there were rumblings that Capcom was going to use Ultra Street Fighter II as a barometer for whether or not they should support the Switch. Considering how overpriced that game is that was going to be a poison pill on par with Mass Effect 3 on the Wii U. But this WILL sell so Capcom will be doing a better "test" of the Switch market.
