### 4/5 — Need guild and world chat

*2026-08-17, version 126.0*

Need guild and world chay

### 2/5 — Worst MH game.

*2026-08-14, version 126.0*

This game is fun. But the movement and camera view is horrible. The game is already difficult as it is but the damage of these monsters and hitboxes just don’t make sense. All of this would have been forgivable if potions didn’t have a paywall. What makes me so mad is that i can have bad luck in a hunt and there goes my five daily potions. The timer is even dumber because the knock back animations spend you like 10 seconds if you don’t dodge the attack. If i were playing out with my friends and we would just be hanging out hunting and then one of us just dies and has to wait twenty minutes to heal or just pay up for more hunts, that’s not fun. My suggestion? Buff monster hp, remove timers, and make it three faints and you fail the hunt, or even just 2 faints. Potions should not have a paywall.

### 4/5 — My honest feelings of MHN

*2026-08-14, version 126.0*

It’s exactly what i expected for a mobile monster hunter I love monster hunter and this game is a simple and enjoyable game I’m having a lot of fun playing this games getting a lot of my friends into the monster hunter franchise but i will say the starts a little slow

### 3/5 — Hunting

*2026-08-11, version 126.0*

I wish the hunting range where larger

### 2/5 — 유저랑 기싸움하는 개발자

*2026-07-28*

현재 헌랭 371 꽤 오랫동안 플레이했음.
일단 속충카 조작처럼 생각없이 만든게 한두가지가 아님. 라이즈 모델링 무시하고 월드 2기단 가져오는거부터, 고룡영격전만 나오는 이벤트때메 사람들 거점 레벨 못올리는 상황도 겪어봄 ㅋㅋㅋ 생각이없는건지 기싸움하는건지 헷갈림 ㅎㅎ무소통 운영에 은근슬쩍 심해지는 bm 경험하고싶으시면 추천bb 깊게하는건 비추천이요

### 3/5 — The devs are getting cheap

*2026-07-27, version 125.0*

Was Monster Hunter Now. Currently becomes Monster Hunter in app purchase Now

### 4/5 — Great fun but app breaks constantly

*2026-07-20, version 124.0*

This is a super fun game but ever since this last update, my app force closes constantly.  I was finally able to defeat the new elder dragon on the 4th attempt because the game literally crashed three times in a row during the fight and just randomly force closes once every 5-7 minutes.  The game is super fun but it is also probably the buggiest mobile game I have played, hence  why I can’t give it a full five stars.

### 3/5 — Would be a great game

*2026-07-15, version 124.0*

If it weren’t for the fact it crashes me mid-hunt while doing either an Elder Dragon interceptions, monsters that I paintballed myself, or just in general whenever I try to hunt with others across the world

### 3/5 — Cash grab

*2026-07-14, version 124.0*

Honestly not a bad game, but it’s frustrating that EVERYTHING in it costs so much money. Wanna play with friends, gotta pay for it or have them all close by, wanna save a monster for later, gotta pay for it with pink paintballs, want 1400 gems? 16$  wanna carve extra parts? Gonna cost ya, what’s the zenny for? Just upgrades, can’t buy any items with it all this game is, is cash cash cash. Annoying but fun.

### 5/5 — Option to Remove Affinity Upgrades from Customizable Weapons

*2026-07-02, version 123.0*

Please implement a fix for the option to remove affinity (+10%) from all customizable weapons without having to purchase another upgrade of the same tier!

### 5/5 — Great Game but Glitchy

*2026-06-30, version 123.0*

As of the latest update there are WAY too many bugs. The biggest one is starting a battle on the completely other side of the battlefield than the monster, forcing you to waste time getting in close and risking getting hit. Also Hunting with Far Away hunters is very glitched. Sometimes you start the fight with the monster already attacking forcing you to get hit. The monsters attack timing is off and you get hit even when you dodged. Also there will be less time left on the timer than there should be.

### 3/5 — Crash Davis

*2026-06-30, version 123.0*

He has nothing on the amount of time that this game crashes, if you can put up with it, it’s not a bad game.

### 4/5 — Love monster hunter

*2026-06-26, version 122.0*

I’ve always enjoyed all the monster hunter games and have played many of them over the years. So naturally this game is something I enjoy I would love to see the season pass and some of the other micro transactions come down some.

### 3/5 — Fun, but…

*2026-06-25, version 122.0*

Thankfully, a lot of suggestions were implemented that have made the game great! I just have one recommendation; implement some way to regain health besides health potions or waiting. Add vigorwasps to the game so we can regenerate some health in a pinch! Or add a subscription that makes potion storage unlimited/larger. Or increase the amount of free daily potions! Give us something please! I wanna play your game, but I can’t get better if I’m constantly running out of health without any way to regain it (without spending $20.)

### 5/5 — i love this game it’s very good

*2026-06-22, version 122.0*

I love this game it’s very good

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Fun mechanics, frustrating experience

*2026-08-08, version 125.0*

The developers consistently ignore player feedback. Implementing base building within cities has severely frustrated players and ruined the overall gameplay experience. Please address these issues.

### 1/5 — BAD

*2026-07-21, version 124.0*

It is so hard to move to go fight because I want to fight monsters but it doesn’t let me move to the monsters so 1 star

### 1/5 — Often CRASHES

*2026-07-20, version 124.0*

Game used to be smooth running, but it must've been around 3-4 months ago that my game will crash RIGHT BEFORE we win a group hunt, so I waste all my ressources for essentially no rewards.  Please fix this issue.

### 1/5 — Limited hunts

*2026-07-03, version 123.0*

At all good hunt but once you got one shot by monster you’re done for the day and start playing another game no more pots.
Make pots craftable like herbs from the stops

### 1/5 — HEALTH UPDATE NOW.

*2026-06-22, version 122.0*

You cash grab garbage developers just NEED that money, huh? I have 110 friends on MH Now but you cap me at 10 bonus health and 5 first aid a day. ZERO first aid rewards anywhere else. THE DEVELOPERS OF THIS GAME ARE SHAMEFUL. You hate your playerbase so much that you demand they pay to play? You expect your player base to wait a half hour every time your “game” screws them over to heal for WHAT? In Pokémon GO, I can’t get rid of enough items. But in this absolute garbage mobile trash, they need your nickels and dimes or you aren’t doing more than the bare minimum. It says everything you need to know that they don’t respond to any reviews. Go #%!? Yourself Capcom and Niantic. You deserve to be liquidated.

### 1/5 — Customer support desperately needed

*2026-06-20, version 122.0*

I used to be REALLY into this game when it first came out. Now every time I try to play it it says they found a problem with my account and gives me a fatal error message. PLEASE FIX OR HELP ME FIX as there shouldn’t be ANYTHING wrong with my account!!

### 1/5 — CAT

*2026-06-20, version 122.0*

THE CAT WONT LEAVE ME ALONE AND IM FAT LIKE IM SO BIG IM BIGGER THAN A HOUSE

### 1/5 — 3 million? Serious?

### 5/5 — My honest review:

*2026-07-16, version 124.0*

So I like this game I’ve been playing and I honestly love the game so far the mechanics and the attacks and etc I love how each monster has their own design and special attacks like they can fly so just keep the game running :)

### 5/5 — 댕청한 애들이 만든 불편한 게임

*2026-07-14*

현질 필수. 난이도 벨런스와 복사 하여 붙여 넣는 식의 번역기와 소통불가 앵무새 상담원과 운영에서 말아 먹었다. 고등학교 졸업작품도 아니고 게임 디렉터 없이 개발 한 티가 난다. 이 회사 게임들이 대부분 다 성의 없이 대충 개발 하고 대충 운영 하는 느낌. 버그가 있어도 보고 해도 번역기 돌리며 대충 대하는 고객센터 덕분에 버그 픽스가 아주 오래 걸린다. 상담원에게 버그를 보고 해도 번역기로 인해 제대로 전달 안된다. 그래도 거의 3년 플레이 하다 보니 중국 양산형 게임 보다 떨어지는 게임이라 느껴 헌터 레벨 400 오늘 게임 접는다.

### 5/5 — happy hunting

*2026-07-13, version 124.0*

This game makes you feel the exaggerated swagger of a monster hunter

### 5/5 — Suggestions

*2026-07-08, version 123.0*

All i could say is that i love this game, and It would be EVEN MORE AWESOME if The Lagiacrus, Brachydios, and Lunastra was added and a few more small monsters like Jaggi and Velociprey

### 5/5 — Love it!!!!

*2026-07-06, version 123.0*

I love the game and the one star reviews? Well those are just people with skill issues keep on the hard work!

### 5/5 — Very very awesome game

*2026-07-05, version 123.0*

So when I first downloaded this game I didn’t think that I would play it all the time but bro this game is absolutely cinema they have really good weapons armor and more I really love this game but until I saw a YouTube video of a monster hunter guy use some kind of we sling thing to hop on monsters and make them fight so I want to ask you this maybe can you let us tame all sort of monsters to fight with you for an next update that would be cool

### 5/5 — Is it worth it?

*2026-07-03, version 123.0*

Yea it’s worth it if you have time to walk and play though it can be fun it’s definitely a time consuming game so play at your own pace and have fun
