Facebook/Monster Hunter Stories 2 Wings of Ruin
2021 is a good year for Monster Hunter fans, with Monster Hunter Rise out in March, followed by Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin just four months later. The Monster Hunter Stories spin-off is the J-RPG younger brother of the main Monster Hunter franchise where players take on the role of riders instead of hunters.
Instead of hunting monsters, and killing or capturing them for research upon defeat, a rider stalks the monster back to its cave, to steal its egg while it sleeps. Once hatched, the baby monster will become the rider’s buddy, or Monstie, and together they will fight other monsters.
