Monster Hunter World 's crossover event allowed players to hunt a Leshen from The Witcher, while also allowing players to craft a set of armor that looks like Geralt's gear from The Witcher 3 . The crossover makes a lot of sense, especially since it sees Geralt continuing to hunt monsters. However, one of Geralt's most recent crossovers was also the weirdest. It was with the Switch's Daemon X Machina , and saw both Geralt and Ciri appearing in the g

The game's first video introduces players to the world of Azuma, a lush landscape filled with a variety of unusual creatures. Wild Hearts looks to follow in a similar hunting gameplay style to Monster Hunter , showing off some of the massive beasts players will fight throughout their adventure. Some highlights of the initially revealed "Kemono" include a colossal boar covered in moss and algae, a giant squirrel that causes trees to grow, and a wolf in a frozen tun
The premiere of The Witcher season two on Netflix this past winter spiked viewer anticipation for the series' direction and what it could bring to the franchise. For some of us, that means following the production of season three much more closely as it commenced, while for others it calls for yet another replay of The Witcher
Monster Hunter Freedom was based on Monster Hunter G, the Japanese-only expanded version of the original Monster Hunter Wilds Walkthrough|Https://Monsterwildlands.Com/ Hunter. Made specifically for handheld audiences, Freedom was not a direct port of Monster Hunter G but instead based a lot of its content on the earlier g
This classic shooter is the sequel to the first Unreal , a game that went head-to-head with Quake and managed to carve out a name for itself, whilst creating one of the most popular graphics engines at the same t
Monster Hunter World originally launched on PS4 and Xbox One platforms in January 2018 before releasing on PC several months thereafter. The action role-playing game enjoyed widespread critical acclaim in addition to meteoric success on the market, which eventually resulted in its becoming the highest-selling Capcom game in company history at over 20 million units sold. It's no wonder, then, that Monster Hunter's PC modding community remains incredibly act
Iceborne went down well with Monster Hunter: World fans and critics alike, with the expansion offering almost as much content as the base game itself. Players especially enjoyed that Iceborne wasn't just more of the same, but added in new gadgets and battle mechanics to keep the gameplay feeling fre
It would be impossible to take about stellar open-world games without mentioning the behemoth that is Grand Theft Auto 5 . Rockstar Games truly went above and beyond in ensuring that this game served as a near-perfect evolution of the Grand Theft Auto form

Wild Hearts comes as the latest game to join EA's line-up of "EA Originals," a publishing initiative between EA and other development studios. EA has already seen massive success with several games published through the EA Originals program including 2021 Game of the Year It Takes Two and Coldwood Interactive's Unravel . The unique mix of giant monsters and technology will look to set Wild Hearts apart from its inspiration when it launches early next y
Of the myriad Monster Hunter World mods that have made the rounds online over the last several years, this seems to count as one that players will want to check out. Naturally, the downside is that the character swaps won't allow players to fully assume the roles of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt heroines. So Triss' incredible fire magic and Yen's supreme sorceress abilities cannot be used to mow down beasties in MHW . Perhaps future mods will make such wonders possible, tho
Another place that Geralt would feel right at home in is the Nioh series. The Nioh games see players fighting through hordes of spirits in Souls-like combat through a variety of dodges and weapons. Geralt would be a great addition to Nioh as his nimble fighting style would mix well with the series' heavy emphasis on dodging and parrying enemy attacks. Geralt would also fit right into the game's dark universe while also bringing some levity through his dry commentary on the strange world. Geralt likely wouldn't fit into Nioh 's historic setting, but with how impressively successful Nioh 2 was , a crossover could be in the cards for Nioh and The Witcher series' futu
