Capcom debuted a new trailer for Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin during Summer Games Fest 2021. The trailer focuses on Rathalos, a large wyvern monster species that have been disappearing under mysterious circumstances. Protagonist Red helps a Wyverian girl named Ena protect a Rathalos egg that, if hatched, could be quite destructive. The trailer seems to suggest that (surprise) the egg will end up hatching. Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin releases July 9 for Nintendo Switch and PC.
Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin, like its 3DS predecessor, will play much differently than the mainline Monster Hunter games. Wings of Ruin trades action combat for a turn-based battle system. As Red, the grandson of a legendary Rider, you’ll travel across the land taming Monsties, who then battle against wild Monsties and other Riders.
