Nintendo and Capcom have announced that they have entered into a new distribution agreement which will allow Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate to be released on the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 2DS platforms from early 2015. Under the terms of the agreement Nintendo will be responsible for the sales, marketing, PR and distribution of the games throughout European territories and the ANZ region, with Capcom retaining their role as publisher.
In Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, players will take on the role of a hunter that joins up with a travelling caravan to explore new lands and towns along the way. This adventure will include hundreds of quests to take on a variety of extraordinary creatures, which can result in many memorable battles between man and foe. For the first time ever in the Monster Hunter series on a handheld system, players will be able to join up with three friends over the internet via the Nintendo Network, as well as the previously available local wireless option.
Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is the enhanced re-release of Monster Hunter 4, formerly a Japan-exclusive title also only on the Nintendo 3DS.
