What we know about MHXX

-Monster Hunter XX, or Double Cross, is basically the G version of MHX in everything but name.
-Despite Tsujimoto's appearance in the Direct, Kojima's still the Producer for this title, so it is likely Monster Hunter 5 is still in the works.
-3DS exclusive, release date is March 18 2017
-Manufacturer price will be 5800+tax = 6264 for the package version, or 5546+tax = 5990 for the download version. E-Capcom will also have an exclusive limited edition for 11800+tax = 12744
-The E-Capcom limited edition includes
–the package version of the game
–a mini shoulder bag
–A 32 page A4 size Monster Hunter XX Production Note
–a Creators (sic) Selection Soundtrack with five tracks (MHXX theme song "Proof of a Hero ~ MHXX Short ver.", the new field "Igunrei's" hunting theme "Sacred Peak of the Heavens", and 3 songs sung by the Nekojou "Kati" and her younger sister "Milshi" 's unit "Miracle☆Milk Tea": "Trabelna ~ Miracle☆Milk Tea Short ver.", "Proof of a Hero ~ Miracle☆Milk Tea Short ver", and "Cute Airu ~ Miracle☆Milk Tea Short ver") 「MHXXのテーマ曲「英雄の証 ～ MHXX Short ver.」、新フィールド「遺群嶺」の狩猟テーマ「天空の聖嶺」、そしてネコ嬢「カティ」とその妹「ミルシィ」のユニット「ミラクル☆ミルクティ」が歌う3曲、「トラベルナ ～ ミラクル☆ミルクティ Short ver.」、「英雄の証 ～ ミラクル☆ミルクティ Short ver.」、「可愛いアイルー ～ ミラクル☆ミルクティ Short ver.」」
-A pair of exclusive 3DS themes will be included with first print copies of the game.
-As normal for G versions, data carryover from the base game will be implemented.
–Progress in the story and completion of quests will be kept. However, the player's Hunter Rank will be lowered to 8 if it is higher than that, and Hunter Rank Points will be reset to a certain, unspecified amount. Play time will also be reset. Like in previous titles, these stats will be recorded in a "medal" 「勲章」 in XX.
–Upon transferral, players may opt to change their character's name and appearance as if starting a new character entirely. If the player opts to swap genders, any gender-locked equipment they have will be switched for the version for the appropriate gender. If none exists, it will be sold and converted to Zenny. When this occurs, the skill ornaments in said equipment will be removed and placed in the Item Box, or automatically sold if the Item Box is full.
–All weapons, armor, Otomo equipment, protection stones, Items, My Sets, and Zenny will carry over. However, some equipment will have stats modified in XX from X, and those will be updated accordingly.
–Quest status, including that for Special Permission Quests (the ones to fight the Two Name Monsters) will be wholly kept. However, Event and Challenge Quests (DLC) will not carry over. Some but not necessarily all of the DLC from X is planned to be rereleased later.
–Otomos that have been hired will be carried over at their current level. However, any unhired Otomos will be purged. Like with equipment, there will be rebalances for the Otomo/Nyanters from X to XX. While status of Otomo Board Special Training Requests will all be reset, the status of the Otomo will be set as if the Special Training had been completed.
–Quests, Otomos, and Guild Cards being held by Mr. Postman will not carry over.
–MonNyan Squad Request Status, Aimless Hunter Request Status, Trade Counter Request Status, and Maka Alchemy Request Status will all be reset, though MonNyan Squad members will be set as if the request had been finished. Any as of yet unclaimed items will be discarded, and any items or Zenny used in making requests will not be refunded.
–The Guild Card's "Hunter Life Diary" "Friendship Level" "Equipment Register" and "Card List" will not carry over.
–"Arrangement of Combination List" "Otomo Scout Conditions" and "Block List" will not carry over.
-Minor bonuses can be acquired if one has save data from Monster Hunter Stories.
-New Field: 遺群嶺, Igunrei. A non-word made up of kanji that roughly come out to "ancient ruins" "group" and "peak." A newly discovered field in a mountain higher than any visited before.
-Returning fields: "Toride" 「砦」 "Fortress", "Mitsurin" 「密林」 "Jungle", and "Sabaku" 「砂漠」 "Desert"
-G Rank Quests are confirmed, as is a new base for them, the 龍識船 Ryuushikisen, "Dragon" "Consciousness" "Ship".

Monsters
-Diablos and Raoshanron from the original Monster Hunter, Babaconga from Monster Hunter 2, and Berios and Bolboros from Monster Hunter 3 are confirmed to return.
-Diablos has a Two Name version now, 鏖魔ディアブロス, Ouma (Slaughter Devil) Diablos, who is described as the "Chief" of the Two Name Monsters.
-Other new title monster alongside Ouma Diablos is an Old Dragon type 銀翼の凶星　バルファルク "The Silver Winged Fellstar, Balfalk" who has his own exclusive battlefield.
-The Shitennou monsters from X now all have Two Name forms. In addition to Jinmetsujin (Incinerating Blade) Dinovalde returning from X, XX will introduce Tengen (Heaven Eye) Tamamitsune, Seidenshu (Blue Electric Master) Raizex, and Ginrei (Snow Covered) Gamoot.

Player Actions
-In addition to the four returning Styles, two new Hunting Styles are confirmed
–Brave Style is an offensive style built around the philosophy of staying on the offensive. It introduces a unique action called Noutou Keizoku 「納刀継続」, or "Sheathing Continuation," which can then lead into one of two other actions. Inashi 「イナシ」, "Sidestep," triggers when attacked during Noutou Keizoku and induces the player to dodge through the attack while taking reduced damage that appears to be all red bar, and is meant to allow the player to stay close to the monster to continue attacking. The player can also simply attack out of Noutou Keizoku, inducing a Noutou Cancel Attack 「納刀キャンセル攻撃」. Noutou Keizoku is induced by holding the sheathing button (Y) while the weapon is unsheathed, and will be maintained while the player does so, but drains both health and stamina, albeit with the former becoming red rather than totally lost. In addition, Brave Style users gain a "Brave Gauge" over the top of their player name, which builds up by attacking the monster, as well as through executing Inashi. Noutou Cancel Attacks build up the gauge faster than normal attacks. When the Gauge is filled, Brave Condition 「ブレイブ状態」 is induced, with effects varying based on the chosen weapon. Brave Style can equip one Hunting Skill.
–Renkin Style (short for 錬金術, "Renkinjutsu," or Alchemy) is a support focused style. Like with Brave Style, players acquire a gauge placed over the top of their name, though rather than a gradual build like the Brave Gauge, the Renkin Gauge is a five bar meter. As time passes it will gradually fill, though it can be sped up by attacking the monsters. Furthermore, the Item list will gain a new entry, the Maka Renkin Barrel 「マカ錬金タル」 for use with this meter. By using the barrel, the player will begin an animation of shaking a barrel to mix items by consuming Renkin Gauge bars, with the option to make better items by consuming more bars and spending more time shaking. Furthermore, by creating items, Renkin Style users will be able to enter a more powerful SP Condition than normal (more on that below.) Renkin Style can equip three Hunting Skills.
-New Hunting Skills, including ones for each weapon class, are confirmed but not yet revealed.

-SP Hunting Skills, or Style Powerup, have been introduced as well. Regular Hunting Skills can be designated as an SP Skill, and in addition to their normal effect, when activated the player as well as all allies (Otomo Airu, or other Hunters/Nyanters in multiplayer) will enter SP Condition 「SP状態」, a condition with effects varying based on the type of player/ally.
–Guild: The usage animations for healing and trap items (as well as potentially other items) speeds up, shortening the usage time.
–Striker: Hunting Skill gauges will slowly build up even when the player is not attacking.
–Aerial: The timing for recovery of Stamina lost from Step Jumping off a monster speeds up.
–Bushido: The reception time for Just Actions increasing, allowing for easier Just Evades and Just Guards.
–Brave: The Brave Gauge builds faster.
–Renkin: The Renkin Gauge builds faster.
–Nyanter: The amount of Support Gauge used for Support Actions is lowered.
–Otomo Airu: Support Actions are more likely to trigger.
-SP Skills are set in the equipment box when setting up Skills normally by pressing the R button. For most Styles, only one Skill can be an SP Skill, but Renkin Style can set all three as such. Furthermore, as items are produced using the Maka Renkin Barrel, Renkin Style users can "upgrade" their SP Condition with additional effects (it's unclear whether this superior SP Condition applies only to the Renkin user or affected allies as well.)
–SP Condition II: The loss of maximum stamina gauge is slowed.
–SP Condition III: Health will slowly regenerate.
–SP Condition IV: It will become easier to make attacked monsters flinch.
-While Nyanters and Otomo Airu cannot use Hunting Skills, they will get a special Support Action to induce SP Condition.
-Nyanters have been buffed and dependent on their Support Tendency can now use "Just Guard" ala Bushido Style, as well as "Aerial Dodge" ala Aerial Style. Furthermore, a new Support Tendency, Beast, has been confirmed. This new Tendency has a unique Support Action, Beast Change Skill 「ビースト変化の技」, that puts the Otomo/Nyanter into "Beast Condition" 「ビースト状態」 which specializes in close range attacks. By hitting the monsters with the finishing move of the Beast condition's combo attack, "Claw Finish" 「爪フィニッシュ」, the Otomo/Nyanter can power themself up in an escalating fashion similar to the Kiba combos employed by Tachi users.
–Tier 1: "Cat's Bracing Skill" 「ネコのふんばり術」(When attacks would make the player fall on one's rear, that animation is omitted) and "Cat's Safe Fall Skill" 「ネコの受け身術」(Super Armor) activate, and immunity to some monster screams and wind pressure is granted.
–Tier 2: Critical Hit rate increases
–Tier 3: SP Condition activates

I wonder if healing and charisma cats will ever be useful/viable

Is there any info not in the OP that's in those Famitsu pages?
And isn't there a second set of Famitsu news that an user said he'd have a look at?

The Famitsu pages are the source for some of the info regarding XX. I picked up the new issue of Famitsu and am doing translation stuff at the moment. The main thing that wouldn't be obvious from images though is the details of the new Hunting Skills and Nyanter/Otomo shit.

Has anyone got a webm or link to gameplay of the deviant tama, haven't been able to find it.

If you mean the Two Name version for Tamamitsune getting debuted in XX, here: youtu.be/W7K_642-JaU?t=2011

I always used healing minions since 3U, I don't see how they're not viable.
