Monster Hunter: World rose to popularity yet again six years after its release. So here’s how many people play Monster Hunter: World in June 2024.

Monster Hunter: World has been the biggest title in the franchise by a mile as the 2018 release still has a massive player count, even after almost seven years since its launch. With MH Wilds coming in 2025, World seems to be carrying the IP this year.

Here’s how many players have logged into Monster Hunter: World in June 2024.

Monster Hunter: World player count on Steam (June 2024)

According to Steam Charts, there are currently 61,944 players in Monster Hunter: World, with a 24-hour peak of 72,635, as of writing.

The game averaged 33,236 players since May 1, 2024, and has been quite consistent in its monthly player count as it has always averaged over 30K since its rise to popularity in December 2023.

Keep in mind that these numbers only depict the amount of PC players using Steam. If we consider the console player base, the player count would be much higher than this.

Although accurately estimating the total number of players across all platforms is complicated, activeplayer.io estimated that the entire Monster Hunter series is seeing an average monthly player count of 5,640,5111 with a whopping 1,522,938 players logging into the series in a day, across all platforms.

Capcom have been running the Return to World campaign online which has likely been one of the most important factors for this traction after almost seven years. Alongside that, the devs also put the game on sale at its lowest price point ever several times since December 2023, which also attracted a huge amount of people.

With Monster Hunter Wilds getting a new trailer, many players might want to dive back into World until other upcoming title releases.
