"Insights from Monster Hunter Beta and Interview"

Niantic's upcoming mobile game, Monster Hunter Now, places players on a real-world map to explore and fight monsters while digging up resources. The combat mechanics are solid and feel meaty, with a mix of active and passive play. The game's multiplayer is quicker and simpler than in Pokémon Go, with up to four players at once. The game is set to release in September, and Niantic says it will change quite a bit prior to its official release.
