New Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Screens Show Barren Landscapes

Capcom have posted a range of new screenshots and artwork from Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate.

The landscape is vast in the new open-world adventure, with scorching desert terrain, frosty peaks and barren wastelands. Within these regions are vicious beasts to battle through, slay, and harvest. The graphical fidelity in the game has been enhanced through seemingly boundless draw distance, improved lighting and particle effects that make the most out of the 3DS hardware.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate producer Ryozo Tsujimoto and director Kaname Fujioka recently talked about expanded features in the new game, including reasons why the team chose this desert in particular.
