Does anyone know the new kitty's name??????

Omg! New villagers!!! A new cat based off of the game monster hunter, does anyone know his name???

Translated on Google images, the promotional image says "the "Airu" visit to the Raccoon Housing!" (Raccoon Housing being Nook's Homes, of course)

Airu must be referring to 'Airou', which is the Japanese equivalent of 'felyne' in the Monster Hunter series. I don't know if that means their name is going to be Airou, but that's the only thing Google Translate really picked up

Pree' sure it'll be called Felyne in US.

Spoiler: And...

'Lets go to the kitty' in Eu. ლ(ಠ_ಠლ)

His name is Airou, he also did a collaboration with the Tamagotci brand and he was made into a character called Airoutchi ;D In English his name is Felyne though

Best post all day I'm creasing

He doesn't gave an official name yet, it's being called airu because that's It's species in the monster hunter series. But I wouldn't be surprised if they ended up makin the official name be airu anyway

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer will be having DLC "sets" that revolve around series and brands such as Monster Hunter and 7-11. So far, each DLC set features a new villager that is related to said series or brand. For example, Monster Hunter's DLC set features a cat similar to Felyne, a character in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. 7-11 features a horse villager who I think is called Shigou according to another member.
