Capcom has announced that a new Monster Hunter Stories game is in development.
Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection will be released on Switch 2 next year.
“Twin Rathalos born in a twist of fate,” a synopsis for the game reads. “Their appearance sets the stage for a new tale of Riders and Rathalos to unfold.
“Become a Rider, bond with monsters, and explore the vibrant world of Monster Hunter in this next evolution of the Monster Hunter Stories series.”
Nintendo‘s own description adds: “: Embark on a new adventure as a Rider living in harmony with monsters in the third instalment of the turn-based RPG series set in the world of Monster Hunter.
“Amidst an environmental calamity, a monster hatches, bearing a symbol of misfortune that drives two neighbouring kingdoms to war. The heirs of these two kingdoms venture into forbidden ground in search of the truth. Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection launches on Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026.”
The first Monster Hunter Stories game was released on Nintendo 3DS in 2016, and was then ported to Switch, PS4 and PC in 2024.
The sequel, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin, was released on Switch and PC in 2021 before coming to PS4 in 2021.
The series is unique in that it’s one of the only third-party series to get its own line of amiibo figures for both entries.
It’s not yet been announced whether Monster Hunter Stories 3 will also get its own unique amiibo figures.
