Monster Hunter Generations Pays Tribute to the Ghosts ‘n Goblins Series

Ah, Ghosts ‘n Goblins. The classic series from back in the days when gaming was a hell of a lot more simple than it is today, where you played as the fearless knight known as Arthur as he embarks on a dangerous quest to rescue the beautiful Princess Guinevere from the evil demon Satan and his army of monstrous minions.
And while there haven’t been any games in the series since 2010, Arthur has gone on to be featured in a number of other Capcom properties, including the Marvel vs. Capcom games, Project X Zone, and now, Monster Hunter Generations.
That’s right… when the game hits stores on July 15, you’ll be able to dress up your Felyne companion in Arthur’s signature knight armor and lance; and hell, they’ve even thrown in his red beard for maximum effect. Those damn monsters will never know what hit them!
Synopsis:
Monster Hunter Generations introduces new gameplay mechanics, including Styles and Hunter Arts that can further refine a very personalized playstyle. Mount monsters from mid-air using the Aerial style, or make the most out of the advantageous Hunter Arts abilities with the Striker style. Hunter Arts are visually striking, indispensable combat skills and power-ups that hunters using any style or weapon can equip.
With hundreds of quests in store, there are tons of challenges to tackle in a solo adventure and also via local or online play with up to three other hunters.
Co-op online multiplayer – For some of the best online multiplayer the Nintendo 3DS has to offer, join up and hunt online with up to three other hunters, or meet-up and play together via local play.
Face a roster of brand new monsters like Glavenus of the Fated Four in addition to plenty of returning fan-favorites like the sly Nargacuga.
Previously only available as custom support AI partners called “Palicoes,” Felynes are now playable in “Prowler” mode with their own questlines and rewards, unique gameplay mechanics, and gear.
Choose from four Styles and many powerful, visually striking Hunter Arts for a truly customized gameplay experience
