Monster Hunter Outlanders has passed 13 million pre-registrations worldwide, according to an official announcement published on October 18. The Japanese announcement dates that total to October 14.

Release date and launch reward The game is due internationally on iOS and Android on October 29, 2026. The mainland Chinese version is scheduled for 2027 or later. Those dates come from Capcom's September 29 announcement; the new development is the registration milestone.

Raya, a Dual Blades Adventurer, is the reward for the earlier 10 million milestone. The October 18 post reiterates that she will join players once the game goes live.

Four-player hunts on mobile

TiMi Studio Group is developing the Capcom-licensed game for mobile. Its official App Store listing describes solo exploration and hunting squads of up to four.

Outlanders introduces a new setting, playable Adventurers and companion creatures called Buddies. The official website also shows resource gathering, facilities you can build and Radiant versions of familiar monsters. Characters are paired with particular weapons and abilities, giving players another choice to make when putting a hunting group together.

The game will be free to play with in-app purchases. How its controls, progression and spending systems work over longer sessions will be questions for the launch build.

Our take

Four-player hunts make Outlanders worth watching if your group wants a new game to play together on mobile. Check the official listing for your region before making launch plans with friends.
