ORIGINAL STORY 5/07/2016 5.30pm: Monster Hunter Generations will let you dress up your Felyne friends as Link from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.

As announced in the following trailer, this will be a free DLC add-on. It's not the only Nintendo or Capcom costume crossover coming to Monster Hunter Generations as other outfits are based on Arthur from Ghosts 'n Goblins, Amaterasu from Okami, Marth from Fire Emblem, and Strider Hiryu of Strider fame.

Remember, Monster Hunter Generations lets you play as a cat, so you can go through the entire game pitter-pattering about as Cat Link. Look at him go!
