Comment of the game producer

Thank you for such great prize of an excellent prize of Japan Game Grand Prix 2008 this time. Even it has been since 13 months from a release of the previous work "2nd", because of the warm support of users, we were fortunately able to achieve amazing sales which exceeded the previous work which had a great hit.

In this product, as a concept of exciting "festival" feeling, it became a super gorgeous version with huge volume up from the previous work.
The appearance of the new monster, numbers of refined new elements, and a weapon and protective gear added in large quantities, this is the deep title which you can continue playing for years. Everyone, please enjoy it for a long time slowly and carefully!

All the staff will always try and make an effort with the spirit of self-advancement to the maximum from now on as well to be able to offer a better work for all of you.
Please enjoy [ Monster Hunter Series ] from now on!
