This week, Famitsu has first information about a couple of new monsters in Monster Hunter 4.

Garara Ayala, according to the magazine, is a snake dragon creature with a giant body. Famitsu also shows Kunchuu in the pages of its latest issue. The creature is a small rhinoceros beetle that tends to gang up on its prey in large group. Typically, it feeds on Yian Kut-Ku.

Famitsu additionally has a first look at the “Unknown Sea of Trees”. Players will encounter Nora Otomo and Piggie at this field.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

More Fantasy Life content is expected in the future. Level-5 is currently readying a big update for the game, and the company previously revealed intentions to turn the IP into a complete franchise.
