Monster Hunter World Has Crossed Big New Milestone, Rewards On The Way

Monster Hunter World has hit another sales milestone, and Capcom is rewarding the community with some free items to celebrate. The company announced on Twitter that it had hit 13 million units shipped worldwide. As a result you can claim some rewards through the end of August.

From July 25 to August 29, you can log in to get a package of items including one Attack Jewel, 13 Appreciation Tickets, 13 Silver Eggs, 3 Gold Wyverian Prints, and 3 Heavy Armor Spheres.

The game had reached 11 million units as of the end of last year, so it has been slowly ticking up to this point since then. Most of its sales came in just the first few months, and overall it has become one of Capcom's most successful games of all time. It also earned a spot among GameSpot's Best Games of 2018.

That all puts it in a nice position for the upcoming expansion, Iceborne. It will be the first major expansion for Monster Hunter World, which launches on September 6, introducing loads of new monsters, mechanics, and a new area to explore. A recent trailer also showed off subspecies monsters and improvements to the gathering hub.
