Monster Hunter joins Resident Evil Survival Unit for a mobile crossover

Resident Evil Survival Unit is crossing wires with Monster Hunter, because apparently regular survival horror was not spicy enough without enormous beasts crashing through the guest list. The mobile title’s collaboration brings two Capcom-flavoured universes into one event, giving players the kind of crossover that instantly makes marketing departments high-five in slow motion.

It also makes sense in a very chaotic way: survival, monsters, weapons, panic and a strong chance that someone will need healing items after making one very poor decision. For mobile players, crossovers like this are valuable because they give a live-service game a headline moment, fresh cosmetics or missions, and a reason for dormant players to reinstall before the timer disappears.
