Though Monster Hunter World continues to receive updates, the game is noticeably not available on the Nintendo Switch. Capcom's ongoing action role-playing game has received new title updates since it released, most recently adding in the Elder Dragon Alatreon, and events like this summer's Monster Hunter World Sizzling Spice Fest are still being introduced. The success of Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, which contributed to the company earning ¥23,722 million in net sales this first quarter, has not gone unnoticed. The only Capcom property listed with higher lifetime sales is Resident Evil at 103 million units - though Resident Evil 3 Remake sold significantly less than Resident Evil 2 Remake. Monster Hunter has also sold more than the entire Street Fighter franchise, currently at 45 million units. Since that Investor Relations press release came out, overall sales for the Monster Hunter series, which started in 2004, have risen from 62 to 64 million units - more than the Mega Man and Devil May Cry series combined based on comparisons published in the first quarter 2021 report.

Monster Hunter World has sold over 16 million cumulative units since launch, and the game's Iceborne expansion has sold 5.8 million units according to the financial report published today. Among them are Capcom, which had its biggest first quarter ever amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and a big facet of that success was continually high sales numbers for Monster Hunter World. Multiple video game developers and publishers including Take-Two Interactive and Electronic Arts have released their financial reports for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, running from April to June 2020.
