A source inside the video game industry has suggested that Monster Hunter 3G will be launched on European markets during July while another source has told RevoGamers that the game will be introduced during summer.

Other sources were previously quoted as saying that the game will arrive during fall.

Capcom has not yet confirmed that it is working on localizing Monster Hunter 3G, but the publisher has a long history of bringing such games to Western markets about one full year after launching them on the Japanese home market.

The game is one of the most successful on that market, with gamers interested in the social aspect of the game more than in the actual mechanics.

Capcom is widely expected to launch Monster Hunter 4 specifically on the Nintendo 3DS handheld and the company will probably then also release a version of the game on the PlayStation Vita in order to expand its player base.
