Break the monster
Damage-focused hunters. Their follow-up triggers when the monster is suppressed — staggered, stunned or stopped by a status effect. Paired with the Palico.

THE SHORT VERSION
Five lines, no filler.
Outlanders is a mobile survival hunting action game developed by TiMi Studio Group and officially licensed by CAPCOM. It keeps the series loop — accept a hunt, break parts, carve, craft better gear — and moves it to Aesoland, an island with its own ecosystems, resources and monsters.
You are an Adventurer. You can play the story cast or your own customised Fated Adventurer, who is not locked to a single weapon type. Hunts run solo or in a party of up to four, and the field is open rather than split into separate maps: you gather, build facilities and travel between regions before and during a hunt.
It is free to start, with in-app purchases. There is no PC or console version announced.
! Launch timing is timezone-dependent. The game opened on 28 October 2026 at 22:00 UTC, which is 29 October in Asia. Capcom's official release date is listed as 29 October 2026. If your store page shows either date, both refer to the same moment.

Pre-registration passed its 15 million milestone before launch, with a Standard Contract and Aqua Dew queued for the 20 million tier. Those rewards were distributed in-game rather than on this site — Hunter Board does not host downloads, codes or account links.
THE THREE ROLES
Every Adventurer and every buddy belongs to one role.
Control the fight
Weaken and redirect monsters. Their follow-up triggers on a perfect evade or a perfect guard, which makes them the reward for reading an attack. Paired with the Rutaco.
Keep the party up
Healing, buffs and utility. Their follow-up triggers when you land your burst — the strongest ability on the equipped weapon. Paired with the Trillan.
! The role follow-up system is team-wide, not per character: your squad's Assault, Disruptor and Support companions each react to a different trigger. Building one of each is the simplest way to keep all three firing.
BUDDIES
One companion type per role.
Palico — the series veteran. Traveled to Aesoland with the Adventurers and uses weapons and items. Assault.
Rutaco — native to the island, builds with tools and Radiantite. Disruptor.
Trillan — native to the island, supports the party with its voice. Support.
CONFIRMED ADVENTURERS
Only the ones shown on the official site so far.
| ADVENTURER | ROLE | WEAPON | OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|---|---|
| Midori | Assault | Long Sword | Carries a long sword hidden in her shamisen; some skills build the Spirit Gauge faster. |
| Pyro | Assault | Great Sword | Turns damage taken into power, then spends it on heavy burst hits. |
| Pepper | Disruptor | Heavy Bowgun | Ranged pressure, with skills that send her airborne for rapid fire. |
| Raya | Disruptor | Dual Blades | Fast, dance-like evasion; some skills spend stamina to build the Demon Gauge. |
| Haze | Support | Dual Blades | Archdemon Mode parries and Crimson Fang Slash follow-ups. |
| Arkaya | Support | Lance | Builds Resolve with steady attacks, then spends it on a heavy blow and a large shield. |
Community trackers currently list 13 Adventurers across 8 weapon types, alongside 59 monsters, 23 of them Radiant. Those totals are not published by Capcom, so treat them as provisional — this table only lists Adventurers that appear on the official site today. More will be added as the roster is confirmed.
RADIANT SPECIES
A new monster family native to Aesoland.
Radiant monsters are existing species altered by Radiantite, the island's crystal resource. They are not simply recolours: the official descriptions point to changed biology as well as higher stats. Radiant Rathian, for example, has drastically improved mobility and enlarged venom glands, so it can deliver poison in more ways than the standard Rathian.
Expect familiar movesets with new punish windows — and expect the Radiant version to be the fight you actually need to learn, not the base species.

|---|---|
| iOS | iOS 17 or later |
