Monster Hunter has been known for its various collaborations over the past few years. In fact, with Monster Hunter X we’ve already heard about Capcom’s plans to team up with Tetsuya Nomura and the Sanrio mascot Kirimi-chan. Weekly Shonen Champion reveals another collaboration in its latest issue.

Monster Hunter X will have a collaboration featuring the anime Yowamushi Pedal. On the cover shown above, a Felyne is depicted in Sohoku’s bicycle racing club uniform, and we also see a chibi Akira Midousuji. Specific details about the collaborations are under wraps for now.

Capcom prepared an official set of screenshots from Monster Hunter X today. The images include the Nyanter Mode which we previously covered as well as Tamamitsune, one of the four main monsters. You can find all of the images below, along with a single shot of Keiryuu (mountain stream area).

Tamamitsune is an agile creature who can use the “Water Breath” attack, which gives players a status ailment. This covers the hunter’s body in foam, causing them to slip and slide on the ground.

Thanks to Famitsu, we have a number of new screenshots of Monster Hunter X’s Nyanter Mode. We’ve rounded up the images below.
