Celebrating Monster Hunter's 20th Anniversary: A Collaboration with Digimon!
Digimon COLOR Monster Hunter 20th Edition: Pre-orders Open (Japan Only)
To mark Monster Hunter's 20th anniversary, Capcom's acclaimed action-RPG franchise has teamed up with Digimon to release the "Digimon COLOR Monster Hunter 20th Edition" V-Pet. This special edition features designs based on the iconic Rathalos and Zinogre, priced at 7,700 Yen (approximately $53.2 USD) before additional fees.
These limited-edition Digimon COLOR devices boast a vibrant color LCD screen, advanced UV printing, and a convenient rechargeable battery. They retain the popular features of previous models, including customizable backgrounds. A new "Cold Mode" temporarily suspends monster growth, hunger, and strength, while a backup system safeguards your progress and digital creatures.
Pre-orders are currently live on Bandai's official Japanese online store. Please be aware that these are Japan-only releases, and international shipping will incur extra costs.
Currently, there are no announcements regarding a global release. Demand is incredibly high; the devices reportedly sold out shortly after the announcement. The first pre-order window closes today at 11:00 p.m. JST (7:00 a.m. PT / 10:00 a.m. ET). Follow the Digimon Web Twitter (X) account for updates on future pre-order opportunities. The anticipated release date is April 2025.
