Info from the Latest Famitsu Scans

Hidden Haze Malfestio
 * This Malfestio is able to turn invisible, allowing it to sneak up on foes easily.
 * Much like Chameleos and Gypceros, Hidden Haze Malfestio is well known for stealing items from hunters.
 * It is said that it loves to steal healing items, such as Potions and Energy Drinks.

Massacre Demon Diablos
 * Though it has a Rage Mode, Massacre Demon Diablos actually has a second Rage Mode.
 * This state can be called the Massacre Charging State (Japanese 狂暴走状態).

Nerscylla and Gravios
 * Nerscylla and Gravios are confirmed for MHXX! They aren't much different from what we remembered in previous games.
 * Basarios is likely back too since its icon appears on one of the cases for MHXX.

Hunter Arts
 * Great Sword - Moon Breaker (Japanese ムーンブレイク): A powerful attack that sends the hunter spinning in the air with the Great Sword, in a moon crescent like shape, and performing a deadly slash.
 * Long Sword - Devil's Blade (Japanese 妖刀羅刹): The Long Sword gains an attack buff at the cost of a hunter's health constantly decreasing. If the hunter hits a target, they'll regain their health with each attack.
 * Sword and Shield - Blade Oil Chaos (Japanese 混沌の刃薬): Puts all Blade Oil types on Sword and Shield at once. Even with this art, you can still add more blade oil on the weapon.
 * Dual Blades - Rasenzan (Japanese ラセンザン): A special leaping strike combo that can deal more damage than usual if a hunter aims for the weakspot of a monster.
 * Hammer - Impact's Pulse (Japanese インパクトプルス): A special art that surrounds the hammer in a glow. This art increases the range of the hammers impact with each attack.
 * Hunting Horn - High Animato (Japanese アニマートハイ): This art allows for the Hunting Horn to play songs by just evading attacks, even evading in the middle of melodies for buffs.
 * Lance - Healing Guard (Japanese 治癒の盾): An AoE healing art. While guarding with the weapon, hunters will heal themselves and fellow teammates in an area as they do so.
 * Gunlance - AA Flare (Japanese AAフレア): A Hunter Art that specializes in knocking monsters out of the air. Hunters will fire of their shots in the air before performing a powerful wyvernfire in the air.
 * Switch Axe - Tempest Axe (Japanese テンペストアクス): This art strengthens the Switch Axe's Axe Mode and makes the attacks in this mode quicker. This art also grants the Axe Mode some new attacks as well.
 * Charge Blade - Chain Saucer (Japanese チェインソーサー): A Charge Blade art that fills up the phials for the weapon.
 * Insect Glaive - Bug Senses Intensification (Japanese 覚蟲強化): The art increases the mobility of Kinsects, but also increases the amount of stamina they use.
 * Bow - Strength of an Anchor (Japanese 身躱し射法): Allows for hunters to fire arrows at a monster as they evade backwards.
 * Light Bowgun - Charge Shot (Japanese チャージショット): This hunter art allows for hunters to fire all LV1 shots in a powerful single shot.
 * Heavy Bowgun - Heavy Slicing Shots (Japanese 射突型裂孔弾): These are more powerful versions of the Slicing Shots. These shots can cut off parts much more easily, compared to normal ones, due to their specially customized shells.

Prowlers
