According to Capcom’s latest financial results, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate has seen massive success all around the world. In addition to being the most successful launch of any Monster Hunter game in the west, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate has shipped 3.4 million units worldwide. 1 million of the shipments came from the west. Unfortunately, these sales did not meet expectations, as Capcom expected to sell 3.9 million units of the title.

Capcom does have large expectations for Monster Hunter Stories, though. Before March 31st, 2016, Capcom expects to ship 2.5 million units of the new Monster Hunter RPG.
