Yesterday Capcom officially confirmed that Mega Man Legacy Collection will only be available digitally in Europe. Naturally, the news also means the upcoming collector’s edition is North American exclusive as well. There are no plans to distribute the gold Mega Man amiibo – which is included in the special packaged release – in PAL regions.

Capcom told one fan on Twitter:

In North America, Capcom is selling Mega Man Legacy Collection through two different means at retail. Consumers can purchase the standalone game or a special collector’s edition. The situation is quite different in Europe, however.

It turns out that Mega Man Legacy Collection will only be available on the eShop in Europe. In the YouTube description for the game’s trailer, the publisher states: “The game will be available to purchase digitally across Europe for €14.99/£13.49.”

That’s definitely a bit of a bummer! I can’t say I know why Capcom has opted for this route in Europe.

Capcom hasn’t slowed down on announcing new collaborations for Monster Hunter X. That’s despite the fact that the game is launching in just a few days in Japan.

The latest partnership, as revealed in the new issue of V-Jump, is one with the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise. It will be possible to dress your Palico in armor featuring the Dark Magician. Materials for the costume can be obtained after completing an original quest.

There are plenty of Monster Hunter X updates to go around. Capcom has shared some official updates, coverage has leaked from this week’s Famitsu, and new videos have surfaced.

First up, Capcom is once again teaming up with Universal Studios Japan. Starting on January 15, players can obtain special equipment and guild cards. There’s also the collaboration quest players can acquire.

Capcom also shared a video of another Monster Hunter X 3DS theme. This will be available at launch next week for 200 yen.

As for Famitsu’s coverage, we now know of the Vicious mode for monsters. They’re referred to similarly as Frenzied monsters from Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and we know that in this state, creatures have stronger attacks and are covered by black smoke. Attacking them allows your Hunter Skills gauge to increase more quickly, and taking them down provides players with armor and weapons.

We’ll close things out with a few different videos. Continuing on below for the latest gameplay, and visit Capcom’s YouTube channel for a bunch of commercials (and making of videos).

Capcom will think about supporting NX, Nintendo’s new system, according to the company.

During its latest financial results meeting, there was this exchange with an investor:

Q. What are your plans involving new platforms (NX, PlayStation® VR and others) and the timing of launches of Capcom titles for these platforms?

A. Our R&D operations are working on technologies for many types of hardware. We will consider the possibility of creating technology demonstrations and making versions of titles under development for these new platforms. At this time, we have not announced any plans for specific products or the timing of a product launch.

Capcom brought a few titles to Wii U, which was Nintendo’s most-recent system launch. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate was available at the Japanese release and soon after in the west. Other Capcom titles include Resident Evil: Revelations, DuckTales Remastered, and Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara.

Yesterday’s Famitsu scans featured quite an extensive look at Monster Hunter X. Most of the focus was on monster variants which are, well, variants of existing monsters with different looks and behavior patterns. Adam Evanko AKA Gaijinhunter took an in-depth look at the Famitsu scans in a video which you can find below, but here’s a small overview of the monster variants detailed in the magazine:

• Darkflame Rathalos: lots of airtime and new breath attacks
• Deadly Princess Rathian: focuses on poison attacks
• Crimson Bear Arzuros: characteristic red mane, powerful attacks with his arms
• Fortress Daimyo: high defense, hard to crack
• Bouldercrusher Tetsucabra: berserk, powerful jaw attacks
• Whitegale Nargacuga: really fast, shoots shockwaves when it attacks
• Gold Thunder Zinoger: has undergone an “awakening” and now has powerful homing lightning attacks
