This can get pretty annoying - especially if you’re used to World’s huge maps being completely seamless.Īnother notable difference will be the way that you track monsters down in Generations Ultimate. Due to technical limitations, each area of the map is in segments, and all have individual loading screens as you pass through them. However, there are even more changes when you’re in the field and fighting a monster, the most notable of which is the map. The Adept style allows you to take no damage and counter, the Brave style encourages you to have your weapon unsheathed at all times in order to build up meter and take less damage from monsters, and the Alchemy style lets you make special items.įor those used to World, these differences in combat are all very significant, and all allow for “looser” play due to the addition of Hunter Arts that you’re able to equip. The Aerial style replaces your traditional Evade roll with a hop, allowing you to mount monsters and attack in the air better. There is a Striker style, which has the ability to reduce the cooldowns on Hunter Arts. The Guild Style is the one that hunters will feel most comfortable with, as they’re based around the weapon movesets from Monster Hunter 4. Each of the styles are able to use these Arts for any weapon, and complement the different Styles you use. In addition to this, there are also Hunter Arts Special moves that you can equip and use before a hunt, these can range from a quick dodge, to a flashy, hard-hitting combo. From there, you’re able to use different weapon Styles, which are a lot more flashy than the regular movesets you usually see. There are some slight differences to every moveset, in addition to the Gunner weapons being very difficult and slow to use, in comparison with their World Counterparts. While all the weapons in World are present in Generations Ultimate, there is a significant difference between the way you’re able to use them. Many of these monsters are not featured in World, and as a result it has a far higher monster count.Īnother major difference, aside from the huge graphical jump from Generations to World, is the combat. Fan favourites such as the Zinogre, Brachydios and Tigrex all feature in Generations Ultimate, and even have brand new subspecies. The difference here being that in Generations Ultimate, you will be visiting cities and areas that have previously been featured in other Monster Hunter titles, all the way from the original to the Freedom spinoff titles.Īdditionally, expect to see monsters previously featured in the franchise to make a return. This is a far cry from Monster Hunter World’s sole city of Astera. In Generations Ultimate you will find yourself moving in between cities, depending how far along you are in the story. One of the biggest differences is in the way the world is presented to you. Technically, Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate was completed before World. Because Ultimate is built from the foundations of Generations, you’ll find that this game does not have all the quality of life updates that players have come to expect from Monster Hunter World. Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate is actually an expansion on 2016’s 3DS title Monster Hunter Generations, with more monsters added and a G-Rank endgame added, in addition to a handful of new monsters. Released last year in Japan as Monster Hunter XX, this hunting action experience might be a little bit different, for all the western fans that got into the series with the blockbuster hit Monster Hunter World. With the recent announcement of Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate for Nintendo Switch, Monster Hunter fans all around the Western Hemisphere are all excited about getting this highly anticipated port in their hands.
