A new rumor is indicating that Capcom’s hugeMonster Hunterfranchise is returning to its spiritual home when previously Wii-exclusiveMonster Hunter Tricomes to the PSP.
The gossip is being spread by Hong Kong magazineGamewave. The mag says thatMonster Hunter Tri Portableis currently being developed and is due for release by the end of the year.Gamewavehas a good track record with its PSP stories, although some of its other rumors have been sketchy.
Until this is officially announced, it’s nothing but speculation, but it would be pretty big news if it turns out to be true. Quite sad that a home console can share a near-identical game with a portable system, but that’s the Wii for you.
