Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is jam-packed with collaborations with other franchises. Recently, SEGA announced that the game would see a crossover with Sonic the Hedgehog. Players will be able to dress felynes in Sonic armor, and there’s also a guild card based on the Green Hill Zone.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate producer Ryozo Tsujimoto explained to Siliconera how the collaboration with SEGA came to be. He said:

“There are actually a few people at Sega that we’re pretty close to. We were chatting and thinking if there was something we could do together—some kind of collaboration. Then we settled on Sonic, ultimately, because he’s not only popular here in Japan, he’s also extremely popular overseas.”

“Since we’re doing an overseas version of this game, it made sense to do some sort of collaborative crossover that would make sense globally. So I had an associate of mine at Sega introduce me to the person in charge [of licensing]. We shook hands, made the deal, and there you go.”

The latest Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate website update brings along new details about Serlegios (including a new status ailment). View some new information below.

– Serlegios can inflict a brand new status ailment on players
– This is a laceration or “torn” state
– Players will receive damage when running, dodging, and attacking under this effect
– Walking is still okay
– Serlegios’ scales cause the torn state
– Need to remain crouched for a certain period of time or eat a Well-Done Steak to recover
– Weapons you get from Serlegios have unique features
– Ex: if you’re using a Serlegios Bowgun, dodging will automatically load a single shot from the ammo you presently have selected into the gun
– With close-ranged weapons, if the player dodges several times in a row with their weapon unsheathed, it will restore some of your sharpness
– For Serlegios bows, a physical damage enhancing effect (equivalent to that of the Power Coating item) has been added to the C. Range Coating item
