Learn how to use the Item Box in Monster Hunter Generations! Manage your inventory, change equipment, customize your hunter, and optimize your hunting style.

Hey there, Hunter! Let's talk about one of the most important places in Monster Hunter Generations: the Item Box. You'll find these handy chests scattered around, usually near the quest gate in any major village or hunter hub. There's also one right in your house and in the hunter's prep area. While the ones by the quest gate are pretty basic for managing your bag and combining items, the ones in your house and prep area are where the real magic happens!

These special Item Boxes are your hub for customizing your hunter. You can change your equipment, tweak your appearance (though you can't magically switch genders, sadly!), and even switch up your Hunting Style and toggle your Hunting Arts. Pretty neat, right?

Here's a breakdown of what you can do with the Item Box:
