Past Monster Hunter Stories games followed a new Rider coming into their own, learning about the world and themselves along the way. Stories 3 takes a different approach. It’s less about personal growth and more about directly protecting the world of Monster Hunter Stories – whether that means fighting off dangers or restoring damaged environments.
Okay, so I was checking out the new screenshots for the February update, and I think I just spotted something crazy. There’s this sword that looks like a mirror, and it seems to be reflecting a monster we haven’t seen before! A big shoutout to @Nasafitra for pointing it out – it’s a seriously sneaky way to hide a potential clue, honestly.
Nioh 3 builds on everything Team Ninja learned from previous games and other successful action RPGs. It represents the peak of their work with the Souls-like formula, bringing together ideas from multiple titles into a polished experience.
Update 4 for Monster Hunter Wilds added a lot of new content, including the Gogmazios monster and more options for customizing your character’s equipment.

Capcom revealed Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection during the Nintendo Direct in July 2025. This is the newest game in the Monster Hunter Stories spin-off series. Unlike the main Monster Hunter games, which focus on real-time action combat, Monster Hunter Stories uses turn-based battles and plays more like a traditional Japanese role-playing game (JRPG). The Monster Hunter Stories games also prioritize story and character development, and early marketing for Twisted Reflection highlights this focus.
I’m really interested in Horizon Hunters Gathering, which is launching on PlayStation 5 and PC with crossplay. It looks like a complex game, but at its core, it plays a lot like Monster Hunter, but with some unique new ideas.
