A big batch of screenshots has been released for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS exclusive Monster Hunter X.

The screens give us a look at several of the monsters and environments players will encounter in the game, as well as some combat and a look at some of the equipment you'll be able to customize and protect your characters with. There even seems to be some graphical improvements, though the Nintendo 3DS has been the Monster Hunter destination for some time now.

See the screenshots below.
