Monster Hunter X features gameplay similar to past titles in the series. The player assumes the role of a hunter who embarks on quests to hunt dangerous creatures. The game will have four new signature monsters along with a number of past flagship monsters.
All fourteen weapon types from Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate are included in Monster Hunter X. The game features new special attacks known as "Hunting Arts". These attacks have different effects such as dealing massive damage, providing buffs, or healing allies. The game also introduces a system called "Hunting Styles". This system adds different attack styles for a weapon, each weapon type in the game will have four distinct forms.
The Guild Style is a balanced and basic style akin to combat in previous games of the series.
The Striker Style is less technical but emphasises the use of "Hunting Arts" letting the player set up three special attacks.
The Aerial Style specialises in mid-air attacks allowing players to use monsters as a platform which they can propel themselves off.
The Bushido Style gives players an opportunity to perform powerful counterattacks after successfully evading a monster's attack.Visually, the game's combat has been described as flashier than previous titles.
