Monster Hunter Stories 1 release date set for June on Switch, new trailer

During today’s Capcom Highlights showcase, fans were treated to another look at the updated version of the first Monster Hunter Stories with a release date and new trailer. The title is being re-released on Switch after its original 3DS debut with updated graphics and more.

Monster Hunter Stories will launch for Switch on June 14, 2024. There’ll be a couple of Navirou outfits as pre-order bonuses – specifically king and queen. You’ll also get the Mahana Rider outfit as a save data bonus for having played Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin.

Here’s an overview of the game:

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.

Ready your gear and prepare for an epic ride, Monster Hunter Stories will also be getting new features and enhancements in this release:

• 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 (TU): Previously only available in Japan, players can now enjoy title updates, unlocking content from TU 1.20 and TU 1.30.
