Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate does have a listing on the European eShop. But in North America, that’s no longer the case. The page is missing, meaning you can’t pre-load the game in North America.

We have a feeling that this is just a minor mix-up. Capcom should put the page back before launch, and with the pre-load option. Even if that doesn’t happen, you should be able to purchase the digital version upon release.

Thanks to Nao★Mi (Rikaria) for the tip.

Dragon Quest is no stranger to long localizations. It can take years for games to leave Japan after all. With Dragon Quest VII on 3DS for example, it took over three years for the RPG to reach North America and Europe.

Dragon Quest XI producer Yuu Miyake spoke about this with Game Informer. Due to the large amount of text in each game and creator Yuji Horii’s dedication to the translation, it can take quite some time for different entries in the series to appear around the world.
