Nintendo paid Capcom $6 million for 9 months of exclusivity for Monster Hunter | Nintendo Switch News | NintendoReporters

 [![Nintendo paid Capcom $6 million for 9 months of exclusivity for Monster Hunter](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nintendo-paid-capcom-6-million-for-9-months-of-exclusivity-for-monster-hunter.jpeg "Nintendo paid Capcom $6 million for 9 months of exclusivity for Monster Hunter")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nintendo-paid-capcom-6-million-for-9-months-of-exclusivity-for-monster-hunter.jpeg)Capcom sadly a few week’s back suffered a heavy data leak. One thing which has emerged is how much Nintendo paid Capcom for Monster Hunter Rise in regard to and Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin exclusivity on the Nintendo Switch.

It turns out Nintendo paid $6 million for exclusivity for the games before they eventually are going to the PC. Nine months of exclusivity for Monster Hunter Rise and Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin is great but is it worth that much?

Capcom hasn’t officially announced a PC version, but it is coming, you can be sure of that.
