During a pre-TGS 2025 Monster Hunter Outlanders digital media event, I was able to ask the team about the game's soundtrack. I was curious whether it would feature original music or mainly arrangements from classic songs. I was told that the team is working to develop its own unique and special music styles for the soundtrack. During the group Q&A, the team also confirmed that it has received a lot of requests and feedback for controller support, and will consider this during development with any updates to be share once there is more information available.
