If you've ever wondered how long it takes to create just one of the many monsters in Capcom's iconic Monster Hunter series, then you may be surprised to learn that it takes longer than you probably expected, according to one Monster Hunter Wilds dev.
In an interview with Screen Rant, art director Kaname Fujioka spoke about the process of creating a new monster, stating that, while different monsters may take different amounts of time to make, "each monster takes roughly a year from start to finish", though this can jump up significantly in the case of certain special monsters. "It obviously depends on the monster." he explains, before adding that "The flagship monster for Monster Hunter Wilds obviously took a very long time because it has to do with the story of the game".
