If you haven’t guessed this from the title, Monster Hunter World is about hunting monsters. On a world. Exactly what it says on the tin, in brief. But you will have times when you are not hunting monsters for a given minute, and at that time what will you do? You’ll head back to the game’s hub of Astera, and you can check out some footage of exactly that hub from the recent Tokyo Game Show.
Obviously, all of the game’s interface elements are in Japanese, but the narrator is familiar enough with the language to make it clear what you’re watching unfold on the screen. And there’s plenty to check out, to boot, from the smithy to your ongoing research into the various monsters you’re hunting. Watch the full video just below if you can’t wait to learn more about what you’ll be doing during your non-hunting moments.
