We’ve all be eagerly waiting for an update on the software update… and it’s finally here! I am very pleased to confirm the exact date and time the MH3U update will go live on the Wii U:

April 15, 2013 at 5pm PDT

April 16, 2013 at 2am CEST

You may notice the two timezones there… and that’s because, as you know, this software update adds the highly-demanded Cross-region online servers ! This means both North American and European servers will be connected, allowing all western communities to grow stronger and more unified! ( Unity~ )

And if you haven’t gotten it from the screen above, this update will allow GamePad Play support as well; so you can play Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate while someone uses the TV… win-win situation there!
