15 Most Difficult Games of 2018

MONSTER HUNTER WORLD

Monster Hunter World is, to be fair, perhaps the easiest Monster Hunter game Capcom has ever made. While it retains the core strengths and fundamental mechanics of its predecessors, in a bid to be more accessible, it also makes changes, such as innumerable quality of life improvements, that make it a game that is much easier to get into. That said, it can still provide a hell of a challenge. Some of the biggest monsters have massive hit boxes and moves that can deal devastating damage, fights are often protracted and require constant attention, so that even a tiny mistake can mean that you’ll have to start over, and things such as memorizing attack patterns and “getting good” with your weapon of choice are just as important as ever.
