Gameplay

The game mechanics haven’t changed much, allowing the player to complete various missions that focus mostly on fighting monsters. A mountain village called Beruna is the player’s base of operations, but during the journey the player will also find locations known from other entries of the franchise. The developers added several novelties to the game that should seem familiar to fans of the series. Weapons in Monster Hunter X have four unique movement sets called Hunting Styles which are the equivalent of Skill Ranks known from Monster Hunter Frontier G8. The system is additionally supplemented by Hunting Techniques which fans know under the name of Finishers from Monster Hunter Online.
