[PC] Action RPG with multiplayer crossplay (kbin.social)

My favorite game franchise is Monster Hunter but I currently have played enough of every game in the franchise to be burnt out and am looking for something new. What I like about MH is the action combat system, the small group multiplayer and although most MH games don't have it, I'd like a game similar to this that also supports crossplay at least between PC and XBox.

Any suggestions?

You might want to give Dauntless a shot. I haven't played it in a while, but it's basically a free monster hunter clone. The graphics weren't up to MH levels, but the combat is solid and the crafting system is pretty fun.

Counterpoint: Dauntless kinda sucks. It's made by the Fortnite guys and it feels like a MTX shop with a bad MH clone pasted on the top.

But hey, it's free. Doesn't hurt to check it out and decide for yourself.

It's not made by Epic Games, it's just the launcher they are using (to the annoyance of many of us who bought early access which had their own launcher). It was pretty good in EA, but I haven't tried it since so I can't say how it is now. Might pick it up on the switch to try it between Diablo sessions...

It seems to be more or less on life support now. Recycled battlepasses, not a lot of fresh content, slow rollout of promised features. Still, you can have a lot of fun with that game if you've never played it before.
