The latest issue of Famitsu has revealed that Monster Hunter 4 features a status ailment known as the Crazed Dragon virus which is transmitted to the player when attacked by an infected Tigrex monster. The virus will affect the player’s recovery rate, but fortunately it can be cured by attacking the infected Tigrex. Famitsu also revealed that there will be a new monster species in the game known as the Goa Magara which can use a special powder in order to track the player.
