Digimon's Monster Hunter Virtual Pets Let You Raise Your Own Rathalos
In honor of its 20th anniversary, Monster Hunter is crossing over with Digimon for one of the coolest pieces of official Monster Hunter merch we've seen yet: Monster Hunter-themed Digimon Virtual Pets. This crossover makes a lot of sense, which is something we can't really say for the upcoming Monster Hunter-themed Fender Telecaster electric guitar (it looks awesome, though).
There are two Monster Hunter V-Pet Color devices available, and both are themed on iconic Monster Hunter creatures: A red device based on Rathalos, and a blue device featuring Zinogre. Both monsters also feature unique variants that combine them with a classic Digimon, with Rathalos combining with the Digimon Greymon to become RathalosGreymon and Zinogre and Garurumon becoming ZinoGarurumon. These special forms are obtainable through the pet-raising mini-games and battles included on the device.
You can collect and level up over 30 other monsters in the game, including other Monster Hunter creatures like Mizutsune, Rajaang, Nargacuga, Tigrex, Gore Magala, and Khezu. Like other V-Pet Color devices, these measure roughly 1.75 inches tall by 2.5 inches wide and feature full color mini LCD screens, buttons, and speakers. You can preorder the Monster Hunter V-Pets for $100 each at Big Bad Toy Store. We'd expect preorders to go live at other retailers soon. Both models are expected to release next February.
