Nintendo revealed during its Nintendo Direct presentation on Thursday that it will bring CAPCOM's Monster Hunter X Nintendo 3DS game to the West under the title Monster Hunter Generations. The game is slated for summer 2016. The presentation unveiled an English trailer for the game.
Those who play the game on a Nintendo 3DS with save game data from the Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate game will receive in-game bonus content. Nintendo is offering Monster Hunter Ultimate 4 with a discount of US$19.99 in its eShop for 48 hours starting at 12:00 a.m. EST on Friday.
In addition, Monster Hunter Generations will have a collaboration armor set inspired by Marth from the Fire Emblem series of games.
CAPCOM released Monster Hunter X (pronounced "Cross") in Japan last November.
The game features Shuryō Style (Hunting Style) movesets, which allow players to tailor their style of hunting to their preference. The game also contains 14 weapon types, each of which features a Kariwaza (Hunting Art), which can be high-damage moves or effects that boost players' capabilities.
