00:11Welcome to the world of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate.
00:15Today we want to tell you all about the Palico system.
00:21Felines are an integral part of the Monster Hunter universe.
00:26These creatures can take up a number of jobs, such as cooking, mail delivery, housekeeping,
00:33but they now play an even more important role in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, hunting,
00:38or rather accompanying and assisting hunters.
00:41A feline brave enough to join hunters on quests is known as a Palico.
00:45When you begin playing Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, you get to create your very own Palico.
00:50You can customize its name, fur color, eyes, and even its meows.
00:56This will be your Ace Palico.
00:58It will accompany you throughout the single-player campaign,
01:02or when you team up with just one other hunter, who can also bring their Ace Palico.
01:08While exploring the fields, Palicos can collect various items for you,
01:13ranging from simple herbs and mushrooms all the way to rare insects and minerals.
01:18When it comes to combat, your Palico can help you in a variety of ways.
01:22It can heal you if you're running low on health, cure negative status effects,
01:27give you a helpful nudge out of trapping attacks,
01:30or simply fend off smaller enemies so you can focus on the large target Monster at hand.
01:35Palicos can also help out by attacking the main Monster directly,
01:39deploying traps, or giving you a boost so you can perform a jump attack.
01:44As you progress in your journey, you'll arrive at the feline's main village, Chico Sands.
01:50At that point, you can start hiring secondary wild Palicos you find during quests,
01:56or you can also get new sub-Palicos via the Street Pass functionality.
02:03These support Palicos can be used in various mini-games,
02:07but the highlight of their day is to join you and your main Ace Palico on your single-player hunts.
02:13This opens up unique opportunities where your Ace Palico and sub-Palico can perform different duties during quests.
02:20One can focus on healing while the other concentrates on attacking, or setting up traps.
02:26But the highlight is when both Palicos join up and perform team attacks.
02:33One of the best parts of this entire system is how you can tailor your Palicos.
02:38Not only can you set some of their behaviors and abilities,
02:41but you can outfit them to look quite fierce, or adorable,
02:45by equipping them with a wide variety of weapons and armors.
02:48Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate also features a number of special collaboration items just for your Palicos.
02:55Check them out!
03:02As you can see, Palicos are a great addition to Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate.
03:07And we hope you'll enjoy this system when the game releases early next year.
03:12In the meantime, stay tuned for more exciting video content in the coming months.
03:17Happy hunting!
