How Felynes Help in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

The way Felynes support characters will work in the upcoming Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate will be different.

Speaking to the game's director Kaname Fujioka, he noted how these adorable companions will have "stats, just like any other character would." The Felynes can also launch players up in the air, similar to a jump attack, but allowing players to jump where they "couldn't normally perform a jumping attack."

Depending on how stats match up between Felynes, players can "lay traps. they can notify you when enemies are in a weakened state. It depends on what kind of Felynes you have, and how they combine with the other ones during the quest."

Finally, these critters will also come with new attacks.
