Capcom is putting the original Monster Hunter Stories on Switch, the company has announced. The game is set for release this summer.
Monster Hunter Stories originally came to 3DS, but the Switch version will be the definitive experience. Capcom is promising updated graphics, full Japanese and English voiceovers, more language support, Museum Mode, and title updates that were only previously made available in Japan.
Everything you need to know can be found in the following overview:
Embark on a journey into a colorful world where mighty monsters roam and people make a living by hunting them. Nestled within this land lies a hidden village where the locals follow a different set of customs. Here, Monster Riders form bonds with Monsties instead of hunting them. Unlike Hunters, Riders forge bonds and harness the power of kinships stones, allowing them to explore the vast and exhilarating realm together. Fight together in thrilling battles, hatch Monstie eggs, and customize your companion to suit your style.
Ready your gear and prepare for an epic ride, Monster Hunter Stories will also be getting new features and enhancements in this release:
- Refined Graphics: Originally released on the Nintendo 3DS, players can now experience riding Monsties in stunning detail on larger screens, enhanced with improved modeling, textures, and lighting in high definition.
