Both Airu Mura games, which star the series’s mascot Felyne characters, feature a large number of customization options and are designed to be more approachable than traditional Monster Hunter titles.
While the PSP game comes on a UMD, Mobile Airu Mura is free to play, and operates on a micro-transaction revenue model. Capcom have stated that Mobile Airu Mura is part of an ongoing effort to expand the reach of the Monster Hunter brand.
