Niantic's Monster Hunter Now Gets Game-Changing New Feature

Niantic's Monster Hunter Now, an engaging mobile game, just introduced a significant new feature called 'Dimensional Link.' Initially, the game was limited to single-player hunts or group hunts with real-life friends, making it challenging for players to progress. Earlier improvements added matchmaking for global players in Hunt-a-thons. With the new 'Dimensional Link' feature, players can now globally matchmake for regular hunts, making monster slaying more collaborative and less lonely. This update is expected to enhance gameplay by ensuring more rewards and easier quest completions. Niantic reports over 15 million players, so there’s a good chance you'll find co-players swiftly.
