Capcom already announced Monster Hunter XX for the Nintendo Switch in Japan and Monster Hunter Stories for the west, getting fans of the franchise hyped. However, these may not be the only Monster Hunter projects in the pipeline: Capcom recently filed a trademark for “Monster Hunter: World.”
The trademark application was submitted on June 5, and Capcom will likely have to wait a while for it to be accepted. The US Patent and Trademark Office database gives only a few hints at what this might be: it is tagged as “video game software,” “downloadable game program for playing on mobile phones and smart phones,” “downloadable screen saver software and wallpaper software for mobile phones and smart phones,” among others.
As usual, early trademark filings like this have to be taken in context. Many trademarks are attached to products that never come to fruition; Capcom could simply be covering its bases and registering a bunch of titles related to the Monster Hunter series.
Currently there is no information about in which consoles the game will be releasing or its launch year, but it is a possibility that we’ll hear something about this project in the upcoming E3 this year starting tomorrow.
