QUICK UPDATE: If you can’t RSVP for some reason, please feel free to come in anyways. We still have room! =)

Looking for something cool to do this upcoming Halloween season? So how about we get together on October 26  from 11am to 5pm and hunt some monsters! That’s right, in the spirit of this spooky holiday; we’ll be hosting our next Monster Hunter here, at the Capcom U.S.A. office !

So RSVP below, call your friends and bring your hunting gear! Oh, and don’t forget your carved MH pumpkins !

MONSTER HUNTER – ALL HUNTERS’ EVE

Following up on the successful  Monster Hunter Community College   1 and  2 (dos?) , we wanted to do an  MHCC3(Tri) with underwater hunting, but it might be cold around October and-… hey! Halloween is about monsters, right?

That works! The only thing is instead of vampires and werewolves, we’ll be hunting bigger game, like Gigginox es and Zinogre s, among other deadlier and more awesome monsters! Anyways, here are the details:

The RSVP process is simple and easy, but mandatory. Just log-in or  sign-up for a Capcom-Unity account  and  purchase this RSVP ticket  – don’t worry, it costs you 0 (zero) Unity points, meaning it’s totally FREE!

Come dressed as your favorite Capcom character, win prizes!

It’s Halloween, right? So get your Capcom costumes and come show them off! We’ll be holding a small contest at the end of the event, and the best Capcom cosplayer (decided by popular vote, aka you) will walk away with a nice prize!

And if your Capcom cosplay happens to be based on  Monster Hunter , you’ll be in for an even nicer prize! Of course, these will be revealed later, but start prepping up your costumes – it’ll be worth it!

I can see some great photo opportunities with our weapon replicas here…

Carved  Monster Hunter themed pumpkin contest!

Another activity inspired by Halloween and MH’s unique monster carving mechanic we will also hold a Pumpkin Carving contest! Now, just note that you  must bring your pumpkins PRE-CARVED . Unfortunately, you won’t be able to carve your pumpkins during the event, but if you bring an awesome  Monster Hunter themed pumpkin, you can enter a chance to win other awesome prizes.

Here’s an example from the folks at @MHCUK :

Prove your skills on the Extra-Credit tournament! – Live-stream

Ready to be really challenged? Then find a friend and sign up (on site) for the Extra-Credit tournament! We’ll be running an elimination bracket system where you (and one friend) will be trying to hunt a given monster from the Arena and Challenge quests faster than the opposing team! The winning team moves forward and takes on the following challenge, until we have only one winning team.

This will work the same way as the  MHCC2 tournament; fun times!

In order to participate, you (and your friend) must bring your 3DS, be HR8 or higher and have all the Arena quests unlocked and Challenge quests downloaded… you have about a month to get to that point! =)

The Extra Credit tournament will also be Live-streamed –  twitch.tv/capcomunity

Here, take a quick look at the mean-looking grand prize:

BYOC – Bring Your Own Console

Nintendo 3DS –  of course, bring your own 3DS, hunt with other local hunters, or even transfer your save file to one of the Wii Us in our office (so you can see your character in HD).

Nintendo Wii U – if the Wii U is your hunting gear of choice, feel free to bring it along! We will set up a limited number of TVs with HDMI cables, so all you need to do is plug it in and start playing. You can even play with other 3DS hunters, via local multiplayer. It’s first come, first serve, so be sure to show up early to save your spot.

Get exclusive collectables!

Our very own  Capcom Store  will be there with a number of exclusive  Monster Hunter  items for sale!
