MonstersEdit

Main Article: MH3G: Monsters

A new Brute Wyvern named Bracchidios, which resides in the Volcano. It is also the flagship monster of the game.
Lagiacrus, Jinouga, Doboruberuku, Ceadeus and Jhen Mohran now have their own subspecies.

In addition, Nargacuga Rare Species and Lagiacrus Rare Species are introduced.

A new monster named Guran-Miraosu appears in MH3G's opening cinematic. It dwells in a water area close to a volcano, and can be considered the final boss of the multiplayer mode, although other monsters can still be unlocked after its defeat.
Some of the returning monsters have new attacks such as Barroth flinging mud after its charge attack,Gigginox laying Giggi eggs on its back, Qurupeco performing a Sleep-inducing dance, Uragaan connecting its roll into a jaw slam, and the Jhen Mohran expelling a jet of sand from its mouth.
Azure Rathalos, Silver Rathalos, Pink Rathian, Gold Rathian, Plesioth and Green Plesioth have been revamped for the game.

More FeaturesEdit

Another Shakalaka called "Kayanba" is able to join hunts. At first, Kayanba is not at very good terms withCha-Cha though the two eventually become friends. Both can join the hunter in the single-player campaign, similar to the Felyne comrades seen in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. When heading into Tanjia Port, the multiplayer mode, both Shakalakas can be taken along if the player isn't playing wirelessly with a friend. When playing with another person, the hunters are allowed to bring either Cha-Cha or Kayanba, as long as the total amount of participants doesn't exceed 4.
A new feature called Target Camera allows hunters to center the camera on nearby large monsters instead of the direction they are currently facing by pressing the L Button. This feature is optional and can be toggled via the bottom screen. If the L button is pressed twice in succession, the camera shifts behind the hunter as normal.
The bottom touch-sensitive screen can be customized to access various kinds of info and menus. All information (health bar, map etc.) can be optionally displayed on this screen, freeing up space from the top screen. Items can also be easily used or combined this way.
Monster Hunter 3 G is the first game in the franchise to feature dynamic shadows (i.e., realistic shadows which are of the same shape as the character casting them). The game does temporarily switch to the previous round shadows when flying monsters are moving to another area.
The Mountain Stream area from Monster Hunter Portable 3rd returns.
All 12 weapons types present in MHP3rd return in Monster Hunter 3 G.
- The Dual Sword, Gunlance, Hunting Horn, and Bow weapon classes can be used underwater for the first time.
- Similar to MHP3rd, Bowguns are split between Light and Heavy, omitting the Medium type and unique customization present in Tri. The Bowguns' attributes can still be customized but the parts cannot be changed, much like with Bowgun kits in Monster Hunter Tri.
The city of Loc Lac from Monster Hunter Tri is replaced with Tanjia Port.
Supports local wireless multiplayer via multicart and SpotPass but not single cart Download Play.^[2] Online multiplayer is not supported. Event Quests can be downloaded online and are accessible forever once downloaded, like in the PSP games.
Village Quests now have High Rank equivalents. These quests include some of the subspecies from MHP3rd and Bracchidios first appears here.
Several of the returning monsters' G-Level armors look different and they provide different skills.
Features from Monster Hunter Tri that were not present in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd return to this game.

Free Hunting in the Deserted Island where resource points can be earned.
Moga Farm is the farming area for the game, as is identical to the one in Monster Hunter Tri.
The Torch item is again found in Supply Boxes and outside Moga Village in Free Hunt mode, though all the previously dark areas now have normal lighting like in Portable 3rd.
Dragonblight, a status ailment absent from Portable 3rd returns in this game.

Unlike in Monster Hunter Tri, in Tri G you start out with basic Leather Armor and one of every weapon type in your item box.
