Monster Hunter: World will soon play host to a couple more guest characters, as Street Fighter’s Ryu and Sakura prepare to toss fireballs at oblivious beasts. The full-body armour sets will not only allow you to dress like the aforementioned brawlers, but will also add voice packs so that you sound like the iconic martial artists, too.
But how do you unlock them? Well, starting “in a few weeks”, everyone with a Street Fighter V (or Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition) save file on their PlayStation 4 will unlock a new quest named ‘Down the Dark, Muddy Path’. Completing this will unlock Street Fighter V Tickets, which can then be exchanged for a Ryu armour set from the Smithy.
Don’t worry if you don’t own Street Fighter V, as the Event Quest will go into rotation at a later date. “The exact timing is still to be announced,” the publisher said, “but during this time, everyone will be able to fight for their Ryu set.” Sakura’s quests will follow shortly after, alongside Premium Gestures, Chat Stamp sets, and more.
Here’s the pricing breakdown for some of the purchasable Street Fighter V content coming to Monster Hunter: World in the near future:
- Guild Card: Bonus Stage (free)
- Achievements: Rival, Destined, Living Legend and Bandana Girl (free)
- Pose: Shoryuken & Hadoken (free)
- Gesture: Street Fighter V Hadoken ($3.99)
- Gesture: Street Fighter V Shoryuken ($3.99)
- Stamp Set: Street Fighter V Set ($1.99)
Bloody Capcom, we want all of this stuff! The company’s going to make an absolute fortune off crossover Monster Hunter content, isn’t it?

This is a microtransaction structure I can actually get behind. I love the crossover stuff, just hope they eventually let you be Asura in all his angry glory 😂
This is cool but damn...makes no sense xD Aloy I understand, she fits the Monster Hunter theme, but Ryu it makes me laugh!
Anyway, still cool, still want it
They're not making it easy for me to not buy this game.
Nice, give me Chun Li too.
I'm not buying any of that crap, screw this microtransaction crap!
Cool! Resident Evil next?
Hilarious, haha.
@get2sammyb what the? I would think you already had it D:
What's holding you back?
PSN's down again...
$4 for ONE GESTURE? Are they out of their minds?! Very disappointing to see, especially since cross-over content on the Nintendo systems has always been free in the past.
Wow come on Capcom give me Dante I will definitely buy this game if they do
I'd rather have seen R. Mika in the game for ... reasons.
@WanderingBullet can't play MH online...the rest works fine
well i just got Street Fighter V from my local library to get this save file.
This is ridiculous lol. Ryu dragon punching a dragon! Now ive seen it all. *edit: just remembered fighting evolution with hauzer.
might HAVE to get MH now.
Ive been really turned off by the thought of tedious inventory management/etc screens all the time.
I wish it were more intuitive/quick, perhaps like horizon.
The actual gameplay and fighting etc seems really cool. Maybe i should wave my concerns to the side and give it a shot
@Gmork___ it's way faster/intuitive compared to Horizon imo. The inventory system in Horizon is terrible. I have 0 complaints with the MH item/inventory system. Hotkeys everywhere!
@AFCC I have other games to play is all. I really want it, but I just decided I should wait until I actually have time to play it.
@get2sammyb wish I could have that much control
@AFCC Yeah, I played little offline... :/
@WanderingBullet online with randoms is way better
@hadlee73 oh no...if they bring that knuckles...... xD
@hadlee73 Part of me thinks it's okay as the MH world is so intentionally silly anyway. It's not as horribly jarring as it would be in, say, Bloodborne. On the other hand, I'd still prefer if they were costumes rather than full model replacements.
A Final Fantasy XV cross-over would fit into this game as well.
Haha this a crazy crossover. Can I do a hadoken to a rathalos now!
