In addition to maintaining the gameplay and world that the series is known for, as well as Hunting Styles, Hunter Arts and other new elements introduced in the previous installment, the upcoming game is planned to feature a new main monster, a powered-up Prowler Mode, and all new towns and areas, expanding on the celebrated gameplay experience. Further, Capcom's development team is working diligently to provide game content that new-comers as well as fans of the series can thoroughly enjoy, including the ability to carry over most save data from Monster Hunter X (Cross) and a bonus in-game item for players with save data from Monster Hunter Stories.
