The point is; after the monumental success of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Capcom really has no reason to localize the said game. After all, Monster Hunter has recently become one of Capcom's staple titles alongside Mega Man and Street Fighter after the game's remarkable performance in Japan (with no less than 3 MILLION copies being sold in just a month after release).
For those people who are not familiar with this series, the Monster Hunter franchise was first released to the world by 2004 on the PlayStation 2 where it became a very popular title in Japan. However, unlike Japan, Monster Hunter wasn't all that well-received overall for western players. While Monster Hunter Freedom Unite had a very strong cult following, the game itself was met with mixed reviews despite its cult following.
Now, people are starting to wonder on what will be the future of the franchise at that point. Nevertheless, it remained strong till this day.
So, what will people expect from this new iteration of the Monster Hunter franchise? I will only be able to come up with the some of the highlights.
1. Hunting Styles - one of the newly introduced combat mechanics in Monster Hunter Generations is the Hunting Styles. These styles can allow you to mix and match your playstyle; whether it is acrobatic gun-play or powerful blade techniques, these styles can enable for you maximize your hunting experience.
2. Hunter Arts - another combat system that is introduced in conjunction with the Hunting Styles. Hunter Arts are special techniques, unique from weapon to weapon, which utilizes unique attacks and skills that are never seen in a Monster Hunter game before, making hunts faster and more dynamic than any other in the series. These techniques can allow you to unleash massive Hammer swings and even shoot a gigantic fireball!
3. Prowler Mode - among the newly introduced mechanics in MHGen, this is one is the most awaited one! For the very first time, players can now play as Felynes (cat-like NPCs that help you during hunts), utilizing a unique move-style and different sets of equipment. Additionally, it also has its own quest line, making the game itself even more expansive.
4. Deviants - Subspecies will not make a comeback in Monster Hunter Generations, instead we are being introduced to the Deviants, unique monsters whose skills and appearances differ greatly from their normal counterparts. They are more powerful, more vicious, and deadlier than ever before. They possess unique attacks that can destroy you if not fully prepared. The good thing is that they can only be accessed at a certain point of the game, which gives you some ample time to prepare for these beasts. There are 12 of them... in case you're wondering.
... and SOOO much more. There are a lot to be expected about Monster Hunter Generations, so stay tuned for more updates!
