Monster Hunter ‘Generations’ trademark appears ahead of Nintendo Direct

A new Monster Hunter might be headed to the West.

While Nintendo plans their online event focusing on Summer releases for the Wii U and 3DS, eagle-eyed fans has noticed something peculiar in the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM) — otherwise known as the European patents and trademarks database

Capcom has sent in a request to trademark Monster Hunter Generations and with the upcoming Nintendo Direct – it looks like more than just a coincidence. Check out the trademark below, courtesy of NerdLeaks:

Monster Hunter Generations

Whether this game will be revealed later today will be something we have to wait and see, but you can catch the Nintendo Direct on GameZone at 2PM PST/ 5PM EST. The Direct will not bring us any updated on the Nintendo NX or mobile games.
