The first day of the beta of Monster Hunter Online has come and gone and the Chinese MMORPG giant Tencent Games released a nice batch of screenshots for those that, not living in the country, can't access the test servers.

The screenshots show quite a few gameplay scenes in 1600x1200 resolution, giving us a nice glimpse on the action, on the UI, and also a good look at the world map.

You can check them all out in the gallery below, while we hope that the success of the beta will prompt Tencent to announce a localization soon enough.
