Monster Hunter World is a big release for Capcom and Monster Hunter fans around the world. That’s why it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Japan is getting a special PlayStation 4 Starter Pack for fans in the country that comes with everything you need to jump in headfirst to the Monster Hunter universe, beginning with Monster Hunter World .
Via Siliconera, the Monster Hunter World PlayStation 4 Starter Pack comes with a 500GB PlayStation 4 system in either Glacier White or Jet Black and a copy of Monster Hunter World, and the bundle itself will run for 35,980 yen. It’s set for a Jan. 26 release, the same day the game comes out.
There’s a red DualShock 4 controller available alongside the PlayStation 4 starter pack, and it’ll be up for grabs separately from the system bundle so you don’t have to spend the extra cash on the PlayStation 4 if you already have one. It’ll be available in limited quantities for 6,480 yen the same day the game releases as well.
As far as the headset and keyboard go from the bundle, those are being released as part of a collaboration between manufacturer Elecom and Capcom, and there are two different headsets you can choose from: a monaural and a stereo version. Both will be available for 1,580 and 2,580 yen respectively, while the keyboard will be available for 2,080 yen. They’re all pretty low-profile, so even if you’re not so interested in the game series they’re still decent picks if you’re in the market for new headsets and a keyboard.
Monster Hunter World is making its debut on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, though the PC version of the game will be released later this fall, months after console players get their hands on it this month. It may still be weeks away, but there’s a third beta test going on when Jan. 19 rolls around that players can participate in to fight off the monster Nergigante. It’s going to be a great year for Monster Hunter fans, clearly.
