Darkstalkers Resurrected In Monster Hunter Frontier Online

By Ishaan . October 3, 2011 . 5:03pm

Monster Hunter Frontier Online has received a new update in Japan that allows you to outfit hunters with costumes from Darkstalkers. You can see Dmitri and Morrigan costumes in the video below:

 

 

Frontier has also had costumes from other fighting games in the past, such as Street Fighter. Capcom made different colour variations of Ryu and Chun Li costumes available for purchase earlier this year.

    I saw “Darkstalkers Resurrected”, got excited and clicked on the article immediately. Then I read the article. Now I’m disappointed lol.

  • UberNoCrono

    My eyes only saw “Darkstalkers Resurrected” then the thumbnail, then I read the headline….and got sad :(

    • Solomon_Kano

      I said pretty much the same thing at the same time, so you’re definitely not alone in that lol.

      I rather not see it resurrected…maybe but not by Todays Capcom

    Someone should photoshop the original Morrigan sprite in place of that 3D model. 

  • AzureNova

    (Looks left, looks right) Where’s my Felicia >_< !!!

  • banballow

    Can you Midnight Bliss the monsters? If not, this is pointless.

  • Gatchaman1

    Stop trolling us Capcom

    • PrinceHeir

      they’ll probably put Onimusha characters as well in the near future

  • ForeverFidelis

    I got a little too excited when I saw that screenshot and read the words “DarkStalkers Ressurrected”

  • puchinri

    I would love to run around as Dmitri~.

    But to echo some others’ sentiments, yeah, I got really hopeful just at the first two words (and the screen). And then I sighed.

    • mikanko

      If only running around as Demitri in a MH game meant you could midnight bliss everything.

      Would instantly make it the best DLC for any video game ever.

      • puchinri

        Just running around as Demitri period is enough for me.
        Wait, let me fix that. Running around as Demitri and beating up dinosaurs is enough for me.
        I still insist on a new Darkstalkers game though~. :’D

        • mikanko

          It will come.  I would gamble on it. I am looking forward to it with as much dread as anticipation.

          Vampire Savior with scanlines and GGPO netcode on my PS360, similar to the love that 3rd Strike got, is what I want. I would bet my livelihood and go to the depths of hell to get it.

          zawa zawa zawa

          • puchinri

            Oh, I’m sure it will. But I’d definitely rather take the actual game than some DLC of stuff, and I don’t want Capcom to think that I’m settling~. But I must echo some peoples’ sentiments; I’m not sure I want the current Capcom to work on (or maybe even outsource) the game. But maybe later~.

    Is that ground texture for real?

    Oh Capcom.. if only you let someone bring this over, I mean… it’s almost like you don’t want to make money…

    CAAAAAAAAPCOOOOOM!

    Finally! Demitri cameos in another game! All I ever see is Morrigan and/or Felicia!

    • puchinri

      It is very nice to finally see him again, isn’t it~? I’m hoping we get Jedah in something again next too. 

  • Yu_TheKing

    That doesn’t do Morrigan justice :U

    • http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=2704923 Buntar0

      Yeah, should have used her 2D sprite.

  • James Beatty

    I hope Capcom puts a nintendo character cameo in the MH 3DS games. I think Link or any fire emblem character could fit in well :D

    • theworldofnoboundries

      Marth, Lyndis, Eliwood,or Roy will be a good choice i think. Link is also good choice…….. Mario with shoes on his boots? or even Samus using her buster rofl…. Pikachu??

    Now give us Darkstalkers 4, Capcom.

    “GET MAH EGGS” – Demitri, ES-Chaos Flare

    • theworldofnoboundries

      Capcom: Hmm Darkstalkers 4? Okay we will release it…… after SSF6.

      • kupomogli

        Dont’ you mean SSF6 AE?

        • http://www.youtube.com/user/Kamek20xxExtra?feature=mhee Michael Stevens

          I think you meant Ultimate Super Street Fighter 6: Arcade Edition.
          lol This is fun. :P

    Er, while at it, hopefully while having these skins/costumes on, their current stage theme remixes will be playing as well. Similar to BGM effects of the unlockable SF costumes in back Onimusha 3.

    ‘please tell me this isn’t the big “Darkstalkers are not dead” announcement capcom was talking about…

  • mikanko

    Capcom has two teams/developers they outsource fighting games too, and both are currently busy.  I would like a new Vampire game more than any series really, but looking at things realistically people should expect a VS online edition similar to 3rd Strike got first. Then dev on a new game to start sometime around then.  They did the same thing for Marvel 2 when MvC3 started development.

    Stuff like this or MvC3 getting Vampire characters is Capcom’s attempt at raising awareness of the series before they go about those plans.  People shouldn’t necessarily look at it as a bad thing.

  • aoihana

    Resurrection would imply that Darkstalkers has died, but it is alive and well in my heart.

    *Drops to knees* CAAAAAAPCOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!

  • WizardoftheBlueOrder

    In addition to Demitri and Morrigan, the other two outfits showcased are Donovan (huge sword) and Hsien-Ko/Lei-lei (giant claws).

    They look…okay, I guess. I can’t really see them working in Monster Hunter though. (I mean, the notion of Demitri face-planting as he dives out of the way of a Barrioth is pretty funny, but seems so…undignified?)

    • puchinri

      I thought you meant we could actually run around as Donovan. …That would have been awesome. …Awesomer.

    Hrmmm… Most of the fun of Monster Hunter is getting new Armor/Weapons to look cool… why would you want to just be a regular character from another game? #IDontGetIt
