posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
2014's combined 4th/5th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine is revealing on Saturday that Nami's Clima-Tact weapon and Usopp's Kabuto weapon from Eiichiro Oda's One Piece manga and anime adaptation will appear in CAPCOM's Monster Hunter 4 video game for the Nintendo 3DS.
Nami's Clima-tact will be an Insect Staff-class weapon with an attack power of 496 and a lightning attribute of 270. Usopp's Kabuto is a Bow-class weapon with an attack power of 168 and a fire attribute of 160. Both weapons will be available on December 23.
The game previously featured the character Chopper from the franchise as an assistant fighter.
Kaname Fujioka directed and Ryozo Tsujimoto produced Monster Hunter 4 as they have for previous Monster Hunter games. Gameplay supports up to four players. Manga creator Hiro Mashima (Fairy Tail) designed original full-body outfits as well as a weapon for the game. Nintendo had initially announced that the game would be released in March, but it had been delayed until its September release date.
Other Monster Hunter 4 collaborations include a Super Mario and Legend of Zelda DLC, and a giant spoon weapon from Hiromu Arakawa's Silver Spoon manga.
