Capcom has announced a remaster for Monster Hunter Stories, featuring enhanced graphics, more voiceovers, additional language support, and more. The game, first launched for 3DS in October 2016, is slated for launch this summer on PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC (Steam).
According to official introduction,
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.
New features in the remastered version include:
- 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.
- Now Fully Voiced – Immerse yourself in the adventure with full Japanese and English voiceovers.
- Additional Language Support – Monster Hunter Stories will have additional language support, newly featuring Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Korean, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, and Arabic.
- Museum Mode – Delve deeper into the world of Monster Hunter Stories through the newly added Museum mode, featuring the game’s background music and developer sketches.
- Included Title Updates – Previously only available in Japan, players can now enjoy title updates, unlocking content from Title Update 1.20 and Title Update 1.30.
