Monster Hunter Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting action game for iOS and Android. TiMi Studio Group developed it under license from CAPCOM, with a new story, playable Adventurers, Buddies and title-exclusive monsters alongside the series' familiar hunt-and-craft loop.
This is a native mobile game, not a browser edition or a mobile port of Monster Hunter Wilds. PlayBloo does not host the game. Our launch coverage uses official listings and published reports; it is not a retail-build playtest.
The international mobile release began on October 29, 2026. Availability, publisher and store listing can vary by region, so start with the official site and follow its App Store or Google Play route for your country.
Free to download does not mean every optional item is free. Check the store's in-app-purchase disclosure and the price shown in your own account before buying anything.
Launch date, downloads and regional checksOutlanders offers two control modes aimed at series veterans and first-time mobile players. Learn movement, camera control and evasion in a low-pressure hunt before committing to a long fight, then use the map and crafting tools to make the next expedition easier.
Read the beginner checklistThe launch roster is Great Sword, Long Sword, Dual Blades, Hammer, Lance, Heavy Bowgun and Bow. Each weapon can be paired with an Adventurer to unlock a distinct follow-up technique, so weapon choice is only one part of a build.
Compare all seven weaponsYou can explore the island alone or call friends into a four-person hunting party. Buddies also accompany you: the official listing names a Palico, Trillan and Rutaco. Treat multiplayer as a reason to coordinate roles and positioning, not as a requirement for every early activity.
