Street Fighter 6 x Monster Hunter announced

2024 marks the 20th anniversary of Capcom’s Monster Hunter franchise. What was once a niche series ballooned into one of Capcom’s biggest thanks to the overwhelming success of 2017’s Monster Hunter World. In celebration of the franchise’s milestone anniversary, a crossover has now been announced with Street Fighter 6.

As part of Capcom’s Monster Hunter 20th anniversary celebrations, the publisher announced a crossover with Street Fighter 6. Arriving in April, this special event will see players “Adventure through the Battle Hub in Rathalos Armor and take photos in a redesigned space built for all hunters aching for a fight.”

It is currently unknown how extensive this crossover event will be, or if it will simply be a glorified photo mode. Regardless, fans of the Monster Hunter series should have some decent fun at the very least – and a surprisingly great time at best – so a win either way.

Street Fighter 6 has had a select number of crossovers so far with varying degrees of integration, including the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; the manga series Spy x Family and Capcom’s own Mega Man. Hopefully the upcoming Monster Hunter crossover exceeds expectations.

KitGuru says: What do you think of Street Fighter’s crossovers so far? What do you expect from this Monster Hunter collab? Will Capcom release a more robust crossover in the future? Let us know down below.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
