Kokoto Village is the offline setting for Monster Hunter and Monster Hunter Freedom. It is a village where merchants commonly go to sell their goods from other lands. The village is led by the Kokoto Chief, a retired Wyverian hunter who achieved Legendary status for slaying a Monoblos with the Hero's Blade, hunted a Lao-Shan Lung alone, and slaying another Lao-Shan Lung with 3 other hunters after it killed his fiancée. He is also known as the "Hero of Kokoto". Among the village's residence, there is a man who allegedly was once called a "Legendary Gunner". He is currently recovering in the village due to an injury. A woman in the back of the village gives useful tips from a letter she receives from her Brother in town. This "town" is referring to the online mode of Monster Hunter, "Minegarde." There is also a stand with two salesman, one selling equipment while the other forges them. Then there are stands of merchants and a traveling salesman, who brings rare items from other lands. In Monster Hunter Freedom there are the additions of a farm, a training school and a guild hall. Monster Hunter Generations adds Maximeld XVI, who can meld Talismans.

The village's landmark is the hunter's sword which is embedded in a large rock at the back of the hunter's home. It is renowned for being the weapon that the Hero of Kokoto used to kill a Monoblos. It becomes available once a Rathalos has been hunted down. In Generations, the Hero's Blade can be retrieved after defeating Astalos in the village quests.

Kokoto Village is located in the North West of the Monster Hunter map in the a region known as Schrade. It can be pin-pointed on the map by the letter E (ココット村). To the village's west, lies the Town of Minegarde (ミナガルデ), represented by the letter F, one of few places with a Hunter's Guild. To its northeast is an abandoned kingdom called Castle Schrade (シュレイド城) as the letter B.
In Monster Hunter 2, it is possible to travel to Kokoto Village by ship from Jumbo Village, which is on the other side of the continent.
