Monster Hunter 4 is set to be one of the biggest launches in Japan this year. Famitsu handed out a first score in its latest issue for the much-anticipated game, delivering a total of 38/40.

As far as the actual review is concerned, below are a few tidbits from the editors:

– Whilst being relocated, it’s a dramatically deeper hunting experience
– The length of gameplay has tremendously increased thanks to online play and StreetPass
– The addition of jump attacks and riding monsters makes for a much more enjoyable stereoscopic hunting experience
– It takes more time to master a particular weapon
– Although the in-game mannerisms seem to be drifting, completion with communication tools is high

The official Monster Hunter 4 website has been updated yet again, mostly with more screenshots and details on the game’s Unknown Forest. You can find the latest content below courtesy of Siliconera.

– Unknown Forest won’t always be the same
– Capcom shared screenshots as an example showing how the Hunter is standing in the same places during different occasions
– Paths may be blocked in one instance but open in another
– Monsters change as well
– Maps aren’t randomized in terms of accessibility, but you won’t be able to continually farm the same areas
– Maps will be different compared to those in regular quests
– Instead of the full area, Maps will only show your immediate area of the Unknown Forest
– Yian Garuga is back in Monster Hunter 4, appears in the Unknown Forest
– Velocidrome and his Velociprey minions are also returning
– Other monsters including Yian Kut-Ku and Basarios live in the Unknown Forest as well
– Excavation Equipment: new set of equipment with unique parameters and designs
– Can only be collected from the Unknown Forest
– Won’t be revealed until you complete the quest
– Players must complete an additional until you can wear the equipment, which has yet to be revealed
