Not to be upstaged at the den of weird and wonderful that is the Tokyo Game Show 2014, Capcom has announced a Sonic the Hedgehog-themed suit of armour for the felyne fighting compadres (also known as Palicoes) of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, complete with Sonic's legendary sword Caliburn.
To properly accessorise the ensemble, a Sonic-themed guild card background is also included:
Can't wait to try to get your hands on the fastest felyne alive? Suspect Poogie might be jealous of that guild card background? Is Sonic purple or blue? Let us know in the comments!

"Legendary" wouldn't be the word I'd use to describe that sword...
GASP T-THAT'S EXCALIBURN! I DIDN'T CONSIDER GETTING MH4U UNTIL NOW D'''X
is probably the only one who, not only liked, but LOVED Sonic and the Black Knight
@Haxonberik I agree, even Sonic 06 is better than Sonic and the Black Knight.
Felynes! They can really move! Felynes! They've got an attitude! Felynes! They're the fastest things alive! They're the fastest things alive!
It's interesting to see this type of collaboration between two comany's for a Nintendo system, what if Nintendo is on the verge of buying both!? ... lol ok maybe not.. but still interesting to see, has this happened before?
That's some nightmare fuel, right there. Yikes.
It does not look like sonic. It looks like a cat. Ew...
Fighting with the Link Armor while your Felyine helps you with the Sonic one, now that's a combo I wanna hunt with
Well to their credit, this is the first time a cat has dressed up as Sonic... with a sword!
@Grumblevolcano It's no use trying to defend that game!
Nintendo! Buy capcom and all rights from sega.
God was that game absolutely terrible.
Keep other franchises out of my Monster Hunter !!!
@CaviarMeths Agreed. Me no likey.
Are we also going to have erazer jin and elise costumes to?
No scarf?
Haha, it's a nice nod to Black Knight. But the costume.... It's just so funny!
@BakaKnight You stole my idea!
OK, this is just weird. Sanic in MonHun???
(Fun lookin' guild card though!)
@deliangrapeman YES! FINALLY SOMEONE IN THIS WORLD OTHER THAN ME LIKES IT! 8D
Where have you been all my life? X'D
Freaking disgusting.
First denying fans of PSO2 and potentially PSNova, and now asking Capcom to put in their sh**ty, dead mascot? Not even a PSO-related costume?
Sega trying too hard to keep Sonic barely alive. Just let the damned rat sleep already, and start giving us all the GOOD games.
LMFAO!! This news just made my day... no, week! That's just funny as hell. XD
@Psyclone
Project X Zone
Collab between Bamco, Capcom, and Sega.
The prequel was a game on PSP that was a collab between Cappy and Bammy.
Sonic? More like Satanic lol.
COOL!!!!! What a great idea. I do NOT have a problem with my sidekick being my favorite video game character
That is just creepy looking
The horror........
U guys are extremely negative lol. If u don't like it, don't use it.
I'll probably stick with Mario & Luigi felynes, though it'll be cool if the Sonic costume increased the Felyne's speed.
Ermehgerd it's super sword Sanic the hedgehorg!
If it plays "Knight of the Wind" when you have him, I will consider using him.
Capcom cares more about Sonic than Mega Man CONFIRMED!
(Sadly, this is probably true).
And here comes the Sonic haters...
How very odd. I mean, have they even officially shown the Mario & Luigi Felyne costumes for the West? I remember the Japanese reveal including it with the Link costume reveal, but I don't think they've made it clear that our version is getting them, too (though I'm sure that we will, especially in light of this peculiar reveal).
@AVahne Thanks for the info even though I'm a little late on the reply lol.
