Troubleshooting

How to fix Monster Hunter not working

Monster Hunter is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach monsterhunter.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check the Monster Hunter report level

    The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level. If they are, the issue is likely on the game's side, so wait and try again later.

  2. Restart Monster Hunter and your console

    Close the app completely, then restart your console or PC. On PlayStation, go to Settings > Network > Connection Status > Test Internet Connection; on Xbox, go to Settings > General > Network settings > Test network connection. Launch the game again after the test passes.

  3. Check NAT for online quests

    On PlayStation, check the NAT type under Settings > Network > Connection Status; on Xbox, go to Settings > General > Network settings > Test NAT type. A strict or Type 3 NAT can block matchmaking and online quests, so set up port forwarding or use a wired connection if you can.

  4. Verify Monster Hunter files or reinstall

    On Steam, open Library, right-click the game, select Properties, then Installed Files, then Verify integrity of game files. On consoles, delete the game and reinstall it from your library if verification is not available.

While Monster Hunter is down: what to use instead

  • Offline play If you own a Monster Hunter game with offline quests, you can hunt without connecting to online services.
  • Another Monster Hunter game If you own another entry in the series, play its available solo quests while this service is unavailable.
  • Dauntless Try this free-to-play action RPG for cooperative hunts against large monsters.

Same time

Problems at the same time as Monster Hunter

Since 12 October, Monster Hunter's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

A spike is a sharp rise in problem reports from users, as the live pages showed it. Times are Central European time.

About

What happens when Monster Hunter goes down

Monster Hunter is Capcom's action RPG series about hunting large monsters, and its online multiplayer is how many players group up for hunts. An outage interrupts matchmaking and quest joins, and it can drop you out of a lobby mid-hunt.

The report count at the top of each page shows if player reports for the service are above their usual level, measured in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours; the site does not ping or probe the game itself. Matchmaking usually stalls first, then SOS flares and join requests fail with a communication error, and a session can drop you back to the title screen. A quest board may load while a hub refuses new players, so partial outages are common and one platform can break while another keeps working. Solo hunts still work.

Questions

Monster Hunter FAQ

Is Monster Hunter down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for Monster Hunter are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. If the page looks normal, test the same action on another connection and a second device, because a router fault or a platform sign-in problem can look like a game outage. If it works there, the trouble is on your side.

Why does Monster Hunter Now show a location error when I'm outside?

The app needs precise location permission and a clean GPS fix, so check that location access is set to precise. Step outside with a clear view of the sky and wait for the map to settle before you tap a monster; indoor walls and battery saver mode can stall the fix. If the map still drifts, restart the phone and test with mobile data off Wi-Fi.

Why can't I join a friend's hunt in Monster Hunter Wilds?

A full lobby, a quest already in progress, a password mismatch, or a version difference will stop you at the door. Confirm the lobby ID and password with your friend and check that both of you are on the same game version. Crossplay also needs to be enabled on both sides if you play on different systems.

Why did my Monster Hunter Now purchase not appear in the app?

Store purchases can lag behind the app, so close Monster Hunter Now and reopen it after the receipt arrives. Use the same Apple or Google account that is linked to the game. If the item is still missing, contact the store first, because the app cannot charge or refund your payment.

Why does Monster Hunter Now lose my distance walked when the screen is off?

Battery saver and background location limits can pause the app's GPS tracking, so the walk stops counting while the phone is locked. Set the app to unrestricted battery use and allow background location, then keep the phone on you instead of in a bag. Weak signal causes gaps too, so an open route beats a tunnel.

How we track Monster Hunter

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Monster Hunter, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Monster Hunter, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Monster Hunter doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
