The Xbox 360 Effect On Monster Hunter Frontier Online

Whether you play Monster Hunter Frontier Online on a PC or an Xbox 360 you connect to the same server. Going multiplatform gave the virtual world a noticeable bump in the number of online monster hunters.

On June 27, Monster Hunter Frontier Online hit a new milestone. Famitsu reports Monster Hunter Frontier Online had over 70,000 simultaneous players. The number pales in comparison to, say, World of Warcraft, but the Xbox 360 is having an effect on the game. 38,333 people were playing the established PC version and 34,197 people logged on via the Xbox 360 beta.

The Xbox 360 version launched three days prior on June 24.
