The World of Monster Hunter Stories
In a world where large monsters roam and people make a living by hunting them, there is a remote village of people who follow a different set of customs. They are known as the Monster Riders, a group that forms bonds with monsters instead of hunting them.
Monsters that develop relationships with Riders, called "Monsties," possess incredible powers. Join the adventure and embark on a thrilling journey!
Game Features
- Recruit numerous Monsties: The bonds you form with these creatures are vital for your adventure. Explore vast environments and dungeons to discover monster dens and collect eggs to hatch new Monsties.
- Fight alongside your Monsties in Network Battles: Join forces with the Monsties you've raised to engage in battles against other Riders. Build a team of your favorite creatures and challenge other players.
- New features for the smartphone version: Experience stunning high-resolution graphics, an improved user interface, and a convenient auto-save feature.
Story
The story begins in a forest near the Riders' village, where three young friends - the hero, Lilia, and Cheval - stumble upon a shining egg. Playfully imitating the Rite of Kinship, they are astonished when the ritual actually succeeds!
The egg hatches into a baby Rathalos, a flying wyvern also known as "the King of the Skies." The trio lovingly names him "Ratha" and takes him back to their village.
A year goes by...
The Village Chief presents the hero with a Kinship Stone, officially making them a Rider. Cheval and Lilia leave the village, each following their own path. Now separated from their childhood friends, the hero teams up with the cheerful Navirou and embarks on a new adventure into the world of hunters.
