Monster Hunter World Regains Popularity on Steam: What You Need to Know

After five years, still a force to be reckoned with

Monster Hunter World is gaining popularity once again on Steam following Capcom’s online campaign and the reveal of Monster Hunter Wilds.

Monster Hunter World has made a roaring comeback on Steam this week, thanks to Capcom’s announcement of the highly anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds during The Game Awards 2023. While fans eagerly await the release of the new entry in the action-packed series in 2025, Capcom has launched a “Return To World” campaign to rally players back to the 2018 installment. With an enticing online hashtag and an unprecedented 67% discount on Steam, it’s no wonder that Monster Hunter World has exceeded 100,000 concurrent players for the first time since its last update in 2020. The game’s success can be attributed to its top-notch quality, the dedication of its community, and the irresistible savings on PC.

The Return To World Campaign and Massive Steam Discount

In an effort to build excitement for Monster Hunter Wilds and reignite interest in Monster Hunter World, Capcom implemented the Return To World campaign. The campaign, accompanied by a prominent online hashtag, has successfully drawn players back to the 2018 installment. However, what truly made the experience irresistible was the jaw-dropping discount on Steam. Slashing the price by an astounding 67%, this unprecedented offer has made the game an absolute steal at only £8/10. With an average playtime of up to 40 hours for a single campaign, this price is unbeatable.

Monster Hunter World’s Resurrection on Steam

The Return To World campaign, combined with the hype generated by the Monster Hunter Wilds announcement, catapulted Monster Hunter World to new heights on Steam. According to Steam Database, the game reached a 24-hour peak of 113,000 concurrent players, with a consistent player count over 100,000 throughout the entire week. This resurgence in popularity demonstrates the enduring appeal of Monster Hunter World and the unwavering loyalty of its player base.
