Monster Hunter Stories[a] is a role-playing video game developed by Capcom and Marvelous and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS.[1][2] It is a spinoff title in the Monster Hunter series and features a drastically different gameplay focus.[2] Unlike previous titles in the franchise, Monster Hunter Stories lets players take on the role of a Rider instead of a Hunter, and are able to take part in a traditional turn-based battle system.[3][4][5] Major changes and additions featured in this title include hatching eggs and befriending monsters, battling alongside them, executing special kinship techniques, and customizing monsters' abilities and appearance.[3][6][7][8] The game was released in Japan on October 8, 2016,[9][10] and in North America, Europe and Australia in September 2017.[11][12] Later, a high-definition mobile version of the game was released on December 4, 2017 in Japan[13] and September 25, 2018 worldwide.[14] The Nintendo 3DS version includes support with Amiibo figures,[9][3] with a first set launching alongside the game,[10] and a second set launching two months later.[15] A similarly named anime series is a loose adaptation of this game, and a sequel was released in 2021.
