• Story
The story begins in a forest near the village of Riders. Three young friends—the hero, Lilia, and Cheval—stumble upon a shining egg.

The trio perform a playful imitation of the Rite of Kinship, only to be shocked when it actually succeeds!

The egg hatches, revealing a baby Rathalos, a flying wyvern also known as "the King of the Skies." The trio affectionately name him "Ratha," and take him back to the village.

Days later, without warning, the village is beset upon by a monster infected by "the Black Blight." They manage to drive it away, but not before it devastates the town—and leaves indelible scars in the hearts of Cheval and Lilia.

A year passes...

The hero receives a Kinship Stone from the Village Chief and officially becomes a Rider. Cheval and Lilia both leave the village, each on their own path. The hero, though separated now from childhood friends, partners up with the cheerful Navirou, and embarks upon a new adventure into the world of hunters.

A story of friendship and triumph await you—ride on into the world of Monster Hunter Stories!

Super fun! I beat the main campaign in about a week and I'm now in the endgame, fighting high rank monsters. The story, at least to me, was engaging and fun. The characters were interesting and the length wasn't bad either. While being a remastered (kind of) 3DS game, it does looks great. As a big monster hunter fan, I wasn't sure if I'd enjoy the turn based combat. All doubts about that are cleared. Download this game! While it is £20, it's well worth it.

Brillaint port! Had the 3DS Version, but got to say it's better than the original. Playing on a Samsung S8 with no problems uses a bit of battery though. Higher resolution is much better, more of what we are used to on android games as 3ds resolution is very low to today's standards. Interface is easy enough to use and a clean look just need getting used to. Controls are ideal and load times are very fast! At least double the speed compared to the 3ds version. Frame rate is definitely higher aswell feel like 60fps! No ads at all and no microtransactions! Would recommend! :)

The game is great and the graphics and controls are great. The only downside is that it needs an internet connection to start the game, this is a pain when trying to play the game in some places as there is no connection available. I hate it when people who have purchased a game are penalised. If this game was pirated then this would be the first thing that they would remove so pirates would get a better experience than a paying customer. This can make it unplayable on a tablet unless there is a WiFi connection available, which isn't the case the majority of the time when you are mobile.
