Interview About MHXX with the Producers and Directors (Info Comes From Famitsu)


 * The goal for MHXX was to further put the Cross in Cross!
 * Capcom didn't call MHXX, MHXG, because they felt MHX/MHGen was a game to special for that name in their opinion.
 * MHXX had a few other possible names before finally getting its name.
 * The box art for this game is meant to tell players that there are other two monsters more powerful than even the Fated Four, surpassing them in almost every way.
 * The Wycademy first saw Barufaruku on a normal airship, however, they weren't able to reach such high altitudes from the design of the vessel so they couldn't research the monster. This is the reason why the Wycademy built the new Wycademy Survey Vessel.
 * Barufaruku's breathing methods is nearly identical to birds. The special organ in its chest sucks in air before releasing it out of its wings, along with this red energy.
 * Barufaruku’s name comes from the English word, Valor, (Meaning Heroism or Bold) and Falcon/Farukon (Japanese ファルコン).
 * In particular, the Peregrine Falcon is how it got “Falcon” in its name.
 * Barufaruku came from an abandoned concept that was left behind in a previous MH game.
 * It is unknown which game.
 * According to this interview, Massacre Demon Diablos is suppose to be the leader of the Deviants and strongest one in the game.
 * Massacre Demon Diablos horn was cut off by a hunter while it was still young. This is the reason why it hates hunters and sees them as a threat instinctively.
 * They brought back old monsters, such as Barroth and Barioth, so hunters can get a chance to fight them differently with the six styles.
 * In MHXX, the Deviants will play more of a major role in-game.
 * While coming up with new styles, many ideas were declined or looked over. In the end, they ended up going with Brave Style and Alchemy Style.
 * They're hoping players enjoy these two new ones.
 * Depending on the type of the Palico, they can perform certain abilities found on some Hunting Styles as a Prowler.
 * The woman in the Malfestio dress is the owner of the Wycademy Survey Vessel Bar.
 * The bold old man is the new Guild Receptionist.
 * They confirmed a few aquatic monsters will be appearing in the Desert like Plesioth again.
 * Seems like a Hunter's Rank in MHXX will follow a similar formula to MH4U's way.
