Just a few short days into 2024, Capcom began its celebrations for the 20th anniversary of the Monster Hunter franchise – announcing updated sales figures for its most recent entries. Following this kick-off, the publisher has now announced a special Monster Hunter Anniversary Program – set to go live on the 12th of March.

Making the announcement on Twitter, the official Monster Hunter page said “Join us March 12 at 4am PDT / 11:00am GMT for the Monster Hunter 20th Anniversary Special Program! We'll be celebrating 20 years of Monster Hunter, revealing your top 10 monsters of all time and more!”

It is worth noting that this stream appears to be focused entirely on celebrating the franchise’s past legacy, with the team specifying that “This special program will not feature new game announcements or news on Monster Hunter Wilds.”

Clearly, Capcom is gearing up for a big event where they will likely blow the lid off of Monster Hunter Wilds. Ahead of that though, it is cool to see the publisher celebrating one of its most popular franchises alongside the fans. Hopefully the special program does offer some teases of the future.

KitGuru says: Are you excited for the stream? Will you watch it? What is your favourite Monster Hunter game of the past 20 years? Let us know down below.
