On December 9, Capcom is officially opening the beta test for the upcoming game, Monster Hunter: World. If you haven't seen the trailer yet, you can watch it here. Fans of the game can start blocking off their weekend as the beta testing will only be until Dec 12. However, if you want an early start on Dec. 9, you can already download the game the day before on Dec. 8.

If you’re excited to start the beta test, you’ll need a strong Internet connection, a PS4, a PlayStation Plus subscription, and a 5.9GB of free space on your console. The beta test will include a single player mode of play (which still needs an Internet connection), and a multiplayer mode, where you can go through quests with three other players. However, you should know that certain online features will be unavailable in the beta such as joining quests midway, Guild Cards, removing other players from a quest, and friend invites.
