From July 3rd to September 1st, across the whole school holidays, the space is being transformed into the Gathering Hall, a haven for Monster Hunter players to congregate, socialise and, of course, play Monster Hunter, with hundreds of fans expected to descend each day.

Friday 3rd July will see the grand opening of the Gathering Hall at 3pm, with fans expected to be queuing round the block to gain entrance. This will be a great opportunity to check out the space, see the social element of the game in action, talk to some fans, and to appreciate exactly why this is such a phenomenon amongst gamers.

Three floors will be available for players – featuring comfortable seating, free soft drinks and amazing graffiti art, and enough space for several hundred enthusiasts to come together and play. Open from 10am to 8pm, 7 days a week, and from 10am to 10pm on Thursdays, The Gathering Hall will open its doors to everyone who wants to experience Monster Hunter at its best – played with other people – and to meet fellow fans. Admission is only allowed with a PSP – so don’t forget your console and a copy of Monster Hunter!

Monster Hunter is THE biggest game in Japan at the moment, outselling all other titles by hundreds of thousands of copies. It’s such a phenomenon that people of all ages play it – parents with their children, married couples, even employees with their bosses – but the biggest market is tweens and teens, who go absolutely mental for it.

Experience Monster Hunter for yourselves at 121 Charing Cross Road, London, WC2 0EW.
