The release date of Monster Hunter XX in Japan is fast approaching – in fact, it’s out this Saturday. Famitsu magazine did one last big feature on the game before its release, and while most of it is recapping old info, there are a couple of new pieces of info in there as well. Adam “Gaijinhunter” Evanko has kindly translated the new stuff.

First up, if you own save data from Monster Hunter Generations (presumably only the Japanese version), you can partially transfer that over to Monster Hunter XX. Here’s what will be carried over:

• Story progress
• Hunter rank up to rank 8 (you get to keep titles from higher ranks)
• Name and looks of your character, although you are given the option of changing them once during the transfer process
• All weapons, pieces of armor, items, palicoes, money
• The “cleared” status for normal quests

And here’s what’s NOT carried over:

• Everything that was in progress when you transferred, such as Hunters for hire currently out
• UI settings and filters
• Guild Card settings
• Play time
• Event quests and challenge quests

Famitsu also shared some information about two important breakthrough quests – you will want to hunt Congalala to access the high rank village and Diabolos to reach G rank.

There will also be a feature that lets you turn a max rank weapon into a G rank weapon, though further details weren’t mentioned.

Finally, a new feature will allow you to have convenient items such as pickaxes and rations delivered to you while you’re out on a quest. Also, the previously announced Sailor Moon collaboration will be available starting March 24th.

Head past the break for some screenshots that show off these new features, including the one that lets you keep the stats of gear while changing its appearance:

During the last Capcom TV broadcast the company revealed that Monster Hunter XX will be the first game that will let the player change the appearance of a set while keeping the stats and abilities from another set. This is a recurring feature that can be found in a lot of MMORPGs but it was never possible in a Monster Hunter game. However, this new system will only be available after geting a G-rank.

Furthermore, Capcom has announced that item management will improve in Monster Hunter XX through a Laboratory Expansion system with item box expansions and additional item set options. In order to unlock the expansion contents we’ll have to progress through the main story mode.

Next in the long, long line of Monster Hunter collaborations is Hunter x Hunter. Specifically, V-Jump magazine has revealed that Monster Hunter XX will get a collaboration with the popular manga/anime Hunter x Hunter. This consists of four special pieces of equipment: Gon’s head, Gon’s shirt, Gon’s arms and Gon’s legs.
