Monster Hunter: World Cheapest Price: 8 Stores Ranked

The verdict first

The cheapest buyable copy of Monster Hunter: World right now is EUR5.22 at YuPlay, an 83% cut off the EUR29.99 list price. That number also happens to sit exactly on the game's tracked historical low, so on paper this is as good as the price has ever been. If money is the only thing you care about, that is your answer and you can stop reading.

But cheapest and best are not the same store here. YuPlay carries a trust score of 65/100 in our data, the lowest of the eight sellers listing the game. Pay 17 cents more at Kinguin (EUR5.39, trust 85) and the safety picture changes a lot for pocket change. So the real decision is less "what is the lowest price" and more "how much trust do you want for the difference," and the good news is the difference is tiny.

Prices verified from our live price database on August 1, 2026.

Quick context on the game itself: Monster Hunter: World launched on August 8, 2018, holds a Metacritic of 88, and sits at 89% positive across 508,626 Steam reviews. That is a firmly loved action game seven years on, and at these prices the buy-in is trivially low. This piece is not a review of the hunt, it is a marketplace breakdown: who sells it, for how much, and which store fits which buyer.

The 8-store price matrix

Every seller below currently lists Monster Hunter: World (PC). The split is stark: five keyshops clustered near the floor, and three official sellers sitting close to full price.

A note on the missing rows you would normally expect in a matrix like this: our data does not list region, activation platform, checkout fees, or delivery timing per store for this title, so I am not going to invent them. Treat activation and region as "confirm at checkout" for every keyshop below, because that is exactly the kind of detail keyshops vary on and I would rather you verify it than trust a number I made up.

The spread tells the whole story. The gap between the cheapest keyshop (EUR5.22) and the cheapest official seller (Fanatical, EUR26.28) is about five times the price. That is a big fork in the road, and which side you take depends entirely on how you weigh a low trust score against roughly EUR21 saved.

Store-by-store: the ones worth your attention

No point pros-and-cons-ing all eight. Here are the four that actually change your decision.

YuPlay: the outright cheapest

YuPlay wins the headline and loses the argument. When the next store up is within a coin of the price and carries 20 more trust points, "cheapest" stops being a reason on its own.

Kinguin: the value sweet spot

This is the pick I would point most people to. You give up almost nothing on price and buy yourself a meaningfully higher trust score. For a EUR5 game, that trade is easy to justify.

Eneba: the close third

Nothing wrong with Eneba here, it just gets sandwiched. Kinguin is both cheaper and higher trust, which makes Eneba a fine fallback rather than a first choice.

Fanatical: the safest way in

If you simply do not do keyshops, Fanatical is your store. It is the highest-trust seller on the board and the cheapest of the three official listings. You are paying a large premium for that peace of mind, and only you can decide if it is worth it on a title this cheap elsewhere.

Best store by situation

• Cheapest: YuPlay at EUR5.22. It is the floor, and it is on the tracked low. Just go in knowing the trust score is 65.
• Best balance (my default pick): Kinguin at EUR5.39. Basically the same money, trust 85. This is the one I would actually buy.
• Safest: Fanatical at EUR26.28. Official type, trust 95. The price is five times the keyshop floor, so this is a comfort purchase, not a value one.
• Fastest: Our data does not include delivery timing for any of these stores, so I cannot crown a "fastest." Keyshop deliveries are usually near-instant, but I am not going to state it as fact for these specific listings.

Buy now or wait?

Buy now, and it is an unusually clean call. Here is why the timing works.

The tracked historical low is EUR5.22, set on June 23, 2026, and the current buyable best is sitting right on it. Since mid-June the tracked price has barely moved: it dipped to EUR5.22, bounced between EUR5.41 and EUR5.51 through early July, then settled back to EUR5.22 from July 18 onward and has held there ever since. That is a flat, stable floor, not a falling one.

One honest caveat on how to read that: the EUR5.22 low is a tracked historical reading, a snapshot from our price history, and it is not automatically the same thing as a click-and-buy price. In this case the current live cheapest happens to equal it, but if that YuPlay listing sells through or shifts, the buyable floor moves up to Kinguin at EUR5.39. Either way you are within pennies of the best this game has done.

There is no discount cliff to wait for here. When a price has parked at its all-time low for two straight weeks, holding out for a bigger drop is chasing a rounding error. If you want the game, this is a good day to grab it.

Where this sits in the series

If World hooks you, the natural next stops are the Iceborne Master Edition expansion bundle, the more portable-flavored Monster Hunter Rise, or the newest entry, Monster Hunter Wilds. But start here. At EUR5.22 to EUR5.39 for an 88-Metacritic action game with half a million positive Steam reviews, Monster Hunter: World is one of the highest fun-per-euro entries in the whole catalog right now.

My call: buy it at Kinguin for EUR5.39, check the region note, and go hunt.
