As a spin-off of the popular action series, Monster Hunter Stories expands the world with a shiny, new, undeniably cute coat of paint. But don't let that deter you, because Monster Hunter Stories' heartwarming story is served with amazingly fun RPG gameplay that never gets old, even beyond the 50-hour campaign. Instead of slicing your way through beasts and wyverns in real-time action a la the usual Monster Hunter style, Monster Hunter Stories features a turn-based battle system with you and your monster pal at your side against up to three enemies.
