Japan's favorite wildlife activity is getting a followup in Japan - following last year's Monster Hunter 4 (http://joystiq.com/game/monster-hunter-4)for the 3DS, Monster Hunter 4G will plan more hunting excursions on the same device in the fall. Siliconera reports (http://www.siliconera.com/2014/01/26/monster-hunter-4g-announced-nintendo-3ds/) that the news was announced during the Monster Hunter Festa 13 event, the participants of which presumably responded with a gentle golf clap and reserved nods of approval.
Monster Hunter 4 data will transfer over to 4G, so if you've imported last year's entry, you can keep slaying beasts without worry. Unlike Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate (http://joystiq.com/game/monster-hunter-3-ultimate), which reached the 3DS and Wii U and supported multiplayer between the two versions, 4G was only announced for the 3DS. A Western release was not mentioned.
Update: In a video message to fans, producer Ryozo Tsujimoto announced (http://www.siliconera.com/2014/01/26/monster-hunter-4-ultimate-coming-westward-early-2015/) thatMonster Hunter 4G will receive an early 2015 Western release called Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Tsujimoto confirmed that 4 Ultimate will support online play in addition to local play.
