“Instead of one person managing the project individually, each department has its own leader who does a great job. We also create an environment in which we can develop the potential of our staff.

Even in Japan we will have a new generation of players. Ever since I started working on a franchise, I wanted to take Monster Hunter outside the gaming industry and make it widespread throughout the world. Over the past 15 years, we have been working hard on it, but still have not reached our goal. Through various events, films and much more we will continue to further advance s brand. “
In September this year, a movie based on the Monster Hunter series will be released on large screens. One of the main roles in it will perform Milla Jovovich (the Resident Evil franchise), and her husband will be the director Paul W. C. Anderson.
