Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Screenshots Show Hunters Becoming The Hunted

Are you itching to fight huge, majestic creatures, harvest their parts to make your armor, and then use their bones to take on even bigger, more impressive monsters?

You won't have to wait much longer, because Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate will be out next month for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U! The touch screens available for both systems should make managing your hunt a whole lot easier, so you can focus on the Rathalos that wants to welcome you as a part of its three-course meal, instead of jumbling around to access all of your items.

Below are some screenshots that show off the multiplayer portion of the game, because hunting alone can get boring, and monsters typically like to eat more than one thing at a time. We've also got shots of the retail boxes, so you'll know what to hunt down when the game is released on March 19th, 2013.

Let us know what you think of the game and, if you're getting it, what system you'll be buying it for and why!
