A licenced spin-off to Capcom’s Monster Hunter series, Monster Hunter Outlanders sees up to four players join forces to hunt monsters on the mysterious island of Aesoland, with the game retaining the usual Monster Hunter loop of accepting quests and using rewards to update and create new equipment. The player is an Adventurer, one who travels the world and uses adventuring and engineering skills to hunt, as well as taking on particular roles when working together. Players create their own customised Fated Adventurer, but can also play as other story Adventurers they encounter in the game. Players can choose to play as either the Fated Adventurer or a story Adventurer in most parts of the game, though some content will only be available for the Fated Adventurer.
