Among other things in tonight’s Japan-only Nintendo Direct, a new trailer for Monster Hunter 4 was unveiled. It showcased new monsters, the Charge Axe weapon, and made the new Feral Wyvern status look far more terrifying than I thought it would be.

A new feature was announced for Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate as well. As I’m sure many of you are aware, only the Wii U version of the game has the capacity for online hunting, while the 3DS can only support local multiplayer. Nintendo have just announced that a 3DS will soon be able to connect wirelessly to a Wii U and then use it as a launching pad to hunt online. Only a single 3DS can be connected.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate will be released in America March 19th, Europe March 22nd and Australasia Match 23rd.

Monster Hunter 4 will be released in Japan this summer. There has been no word as of yet on a Western release.

About Charlotte Buckingham

G'day there! I'm Charlotte, a Head Editor here at Oprainfall living in Australia. I'm always happy to answer questions about the site, so just ask! In terms of games, I love anything with an element of fantasy that has either an open world, depth in characters or lore, or that promotes exploration. JRPG or WRPG, it makes no difference so long as they have these qualities.
