Capcom’s second Monster Hunter Generations localization blog is now up. Whereas last week’s entry touched on the project as whole, today’s piece focuses on specific monsters: Astalos, Maccao and Great Maccao, and Larinoth. You can read it right here.

Siliconera has translated a massive amount of information about Monster Hunter Stories from the game’s appearance on Capcom TV earlier today. We’ve rounded up the tidbits below, though be sure to check out the original report here as well.

World Background, First Ten Minutes, and Character Customization

– Monster Hunter Stories and Monster Hunter share the same world
– Once again, the story involves people who learned to develop bonds with monsters
– Riders never had reason to venture into the hunter’s world until a growing darkness pushes itself into their village
– Game begins as the three friends Lilia (female rider), Shuval (possible rival), and the protagonist head to the mysterious woods to search for Wyvern Eggs
– Lilia mocks Shuval for being a scaredy-cat
– Language used is the same as other Monster Hunter games
– Tsujimoto joked that the voice actors understand the language and they even own a dictionary detailing the Monster Hunter lexicon
– Customize your character when the group finds an egg
– Lilia mentions that you have to introduce yourself to the soon-to-by Myvern before it hatches
– Customize your facial expression, mouth, hair, eyes, eye/hair color, skin tone, and voice
– Voice 1 is the voice actor from the game’s accompanying anime
– A baby Rathalos hatches from the egg
– It then lunges at Shuval, but instead nuzzles with the main character
– Next your return to the village
– Dan gives a stern lecture
– Dan: the riders’ overseer of sorts
– See the village elder, who reconsiders punishment after discovering you’ve made a bond with a Myvern
– A village horn sounds to signal that a monster is attacking
– A Nargacuga attacks the rider village, crushing Shuval’s home and supposedly killing his mother
– The Rathalos comes to your aid, but it takes a strong hit from Nargacuga’s tail
– The hit scars Rathalos’ left eye, and it tumbles off the cliff into the darkness below
– Nargacuga leaves
– A darkness awakens in Shuval as he grips his mother’s treasured mirror and vows to stop this evil
– World map features a number of villages, including ones situated in snowy mountains (Talju Heights), a desert (Kuba Desert), a volcano range (Twin Peaks), the coast, and a mysterious island called Naobaku Island

Monster Hunter Stories was highlighted on today’s episode of Capcom TV as promised, and an extensive amount of gameplay was shown. For the full recording, give the video below a look.

Even though Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice is just a few days away from launching in Japan, Famitsu does have some additional information to share. This week’s issue sheds light on the Apollo vs. Phoenix face-off as well as the DLC episode.

First, when it comes to the Apollo and Phoenix’s battle, a certain piece of evidence causes the two characters to clash. Blackquill is called as a witness in a trial (unknown if these two incidents are one and the same). After finding the spectator’s seats too “boring”, he hops behind the defense’s desk to act as support.

Famitsu also details the DLC episode Turnabout Across Time. Here’s the rundown on that:

– Larry introduces Phoenix to his bride-to-be, Shizuku Ootsube
– Shizuku: a maid working in the Haguruma household
– Shizuku claims that just after she was married, she was attacked and nearly killed, only to travel back in time at the critical moment
– She now finds herself the suspect instead
– Shizuku also says Larry’s got his head screwed on backwards as usual – she’s getting married to a man named Raito, the blue-haired mechanic
– Phoenix and Maya meet both Raito and Edgeworth when they head to the scene to investigate
– They soon find themselves going up against Edgeworth in court
