Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Takes Flight
The new story trailer for Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin sheds light on the fate of the famous Monster Rider Red, the origins of Razewing Ratha and the player’s journey to unravel the Wings of Ruin prophecy. Monster Riders who want to jump in the saddle to experience the opening hours of the eagerly anticipated RPG can enjoy the Free Trial, which offers full data recording transfer on the Nintendo Switch™ and Steam launch on June 25. Fans who want to see more of the various and majestic monsters that come into the game can take a look at the numerous fan favorites they can connect with during their travels, including Elder Dragons Kushala Daora and Teostra. Finally, the presentation also included some free updates to the game after its release on July 9, 2021, starting with Acorns from Monster Hunter Rise.
Mysteries Are Plentiful in the Great Ace Attorney Chronicles
New defense attorneys looking to travel west with novice lawyer Ryunosuke Naruhodo have looked for the first time at the new features and gameplay that came with The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles. While investigating the botched crimes, Ryunosuke and his legal assistant Susato Mikatoba will work with London’s leading investigator, Herlock Sholmes. During these Deducting Dances, the two will have to work together to decipher the ace detective’s overzealous assumptions and distinguish the truth. Ryunosuke must use these facts to convince the jury of his client’s innocence in court to fend off the danger that awaits his clients. Just as the scales of justice lean towards a guilty verdict, Ryunosuke can take a Summary Test to turn the scales in his favor. This rarely used legal practice allows Ryunosuke to distinguish inconsistencies in the logic of each juror and pit the jury against him to continue the trial. With 10 new cases to solve, eight mini-adventures to experience, and a rich bonus to explore, the noble lawyers will have a full document when The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles goes to trial on July 27, 2021.
Monster Hunter Expects More Challenges in Rise
Strong post-launch support for the critically acclaimed Monster Hunter Rise continues with the next update, which includes the first Capcom collaboration title: Monster Hunter Stories 2. Hunters who complete their free co-op mission on June 18 will receive layered armor based on the wise Palico. Players using save data from Monster Hunter Stories 2 will have access to Rider layered armor based on Mahana Village Monster Riders gear on July 9. Also, from June 24, new Event Missions are coming, with rewards such as new armor, movements, and stickers for brave hunters. Fashionistas will also get access to a treasure trove of new looks with new (paid and free) DLC options for hunters and their friends. Finally, fans can look forward to a series of additional collaborations with other Capcom games throughout the second half of 2021.
