In this attraction, participants will become rookie hunters who have come to the "Awaji Assembly Hall" and take on the "Training Quest" to become skilled hunters. The quest is divided into two parts:

Field Exploration

▲You'll definitely be able to scout your Palico to join you in the hunt!

Defeating large monsters


▲Choose one of four weapons, equip yourself with the weapon controller and tracking belt, and try to defeat a large monster!


▲You don't just have to attack, you have to see through and avoid the attacks! Using your whole body is the key!

In the hunting area, you will wear an action controller and a tracking device, and use your whole body to manipulate weapons and face off against large monsters on the screen. You can enjoy a realistic hunting experience with attacking and evading actions.

Key points for defeating "Mizutsune"

"Mizutsune" is a very popular monster in the "Monster Hunter" series.It is a large, powerful monster that attacks using water and bubbles, and moves swiftly and nimbly, attacking with powerful breath and body slams!
It's important to attack from an appropriate distance while being sure to avoid its tricky attacks! Also, when defeating Tamamitsune, you'll encounter an "object" that doesn't appear with other large monsters! If you can attack this, something good might happen...? Be sure to try and find it!

[Experience Report] Amazingly realistic hunting experience!

When I tried it out, I could feel the tension of a real hunt as I actually swung the controller and swung my weapon! Mizutsune moves quickly around the field, and timing your attacks is key. Seeing Mizutsune's unique "bubble attack" up close is overwhelming! If you pop the bubble, something special might happen...!

The sense of accomplishment when you see the screen saying "Defeat Success!" is exceptional! This is a quest that Monster Hunter fans should definitely try.

Hone your skills with the Hunter Rank System!

Participants will use their own IC tag, "Hunter's Proof," to record their hunts. By successfully defeating monsters, your "Hunter Rank" will increase, and you can carry over your data to your next challenge, so keep trying to raise your Hunter Rank!

"Mizutsune" appears at different difficulty levels.

  • Lower Quest … Hunter rank 2 or higher

  • Higher Quests … Hunter rank 3 or higher
    The conditions are as follows.

Introducing a novelty item to prove you've conquered a high-ranking monster!

Hunters who defeat "Mizutsune" in the high-ranking quest will be presented with a limited edition "Original Novelty Wristband" as proof of their skill! This is a special wristband that you can show off to your teammates as proof of your status as a high-ranking hunter!
