Nijigen no Mori – Monster Hunter: The Field, and more
Step into the worlds of Japan’s most iconic pop-culture franchises at Nijigen no Mori, located on Awaji Island, Japan, just one hour from Osaka. Awaji Island is a beloved getaway destination for Japanese locals who want a break from the bustle of the city – and due to recent revitalization efforts, Awaji Island is quickly growing to become one of Japan’s top travel destinations.
From anime (Naruto, Crayon shin-chan), to film (Godzilla) and video games (Dragon Quest, Monster Hunter), Nijigen no Mori has everything a Japanophile could ask for – not to mention cute themed foods, and exclusive merchandise only available at Nijigen no Mori.
Monster Hunter: The Field
Enter the Monster Hunter universe in Monster Hunter: The Field, an immersive AR experience at Nijigen no Mori. Investigate the wilds, gather items, and battle monsters in this epic attraction.
Save your progress from game to game
At the reception, each Hunter will be given a Hunter’s Proof, and a Hunter’s Note. The Hunter’s Note allows you to save your progress between each playthrough of Monster Hunter: The Field. The more you play, and the better you perform, the more points you’ll contribute to your Hunter Rank! The higher your rank, the bigger the monsters you’ll be able to face.
Field investigation – Items and Palicoes
While not necessary to your battle, it always pays to be prepared!
Gather your companions, and begin your Monster Hunter experience by exploring a 130,000m² area inside Nijigen no Mori. Scattered around the area are item boxes, containing items that will aid in the battle to come. With some items stronger than others, choose your items carefully as you have limited inventory space.
You may even find a Palico to aid you in your fight…
Once you’ve gathered your items, return to the main hub, and begin your first monster battle!
The battle begins
The moment you’ve been waiting for. Step into a large AR environment, where you’ll battle monsters using motion controllers and a body tracking belt. Choose from a selection of four weapons (Greatsword, dual swords, warhammer, or a crossbow) and together with the items you looted, take down a Rathalos with your companions.
Anticipate attack patterns, strike accurately, and dodge attacks. The better you do, the more points you earn towards your Hunter Rank!
Themed Dining At Monster Hunter: The Field
Good work, Hunter! After successfully completing your mission, you are in need of some well deserved rest. At Nijigen no Mori, you can dine on Monster Hunter themed foods at Mori no Terrace, with highlights including:
- Rathalos Tail – A hearty meal fit for a Hunter
- Diablos Taco Sandwich – A fiery delight paired with savory croissants
- Zinogre’s Tingling Parfait – A sweet and electrifying dessert
…and more!
As a fun bonus, every Monster Hunter themed meal comes with a bookmark with a random monster design.
