Since it’s release in Japan in November of 2015, fans of Monster Hunter have been waiting tensely clutching their Brachydios plushies wondering when Generations is going to be localized for the west.
Bad news is, we don’t know any exact dates yet. Good news? We know it’s summer sometime. So there’s that.

There’s tons to cover in new combat content with the addition of 4 different hunting styles: Aerial, Adept(Bushido), Guild, and Striker which is certainly going to mix up Monster Hunter as you’re used to.
