If The Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Trailer Doesn't Make You Want To Play, Then There's Something Wrong With You

The latest, and what some are calling 'greatest', entry into the long-running Monster Hunter franchise has been optimized for 3DS and the New Nintendo 3DS systems (also out today). Take up the role of a hunter who joins up a caravan traveling far and wide in search of monsters - hence the title, I suppose.

There are hundreds of items, quests, a new riding mechanic, breathtaking vistas, thrilling combat and oh yes, lots and lots of monsters. You can head through the desert wastes yourself or with up to three friends via local area connection.
