MONSTER HUNTER Stories Remastered Coming to Switch, PS4, and PC

Capcom has announced a remastered version of the 3DS title, Monster Hunter Stories, which is set to launch this summer on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC. The remaster will bring enhanced graphics with improved character models, more detailed textures, and HD lighting, as well as a fully-voiced game experience. In addition to these visual upgrades, the remaster will include all updates from the 3DS version and a new Museum mode that allows players to enjoy music and artwork. Monster Hunter Stories, which originally released in the West in 2017, is a spin-off of the main Monster Hunter Series. Unlike the main series, in Stories, players take on the role of a Rider, forming bonds with monsters and using them for turn-based battles.

The remastered version of Monster Hunter Stories is set to release in summer 2023 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC (via Steam).

Additional Background: Monster Hunter Stories was a departure from the franchise's traditional action-focused gameplay, offering a role-playing experience with a narrative-driven journey through the Monster Hunter universe. The spin-off has been well-received for its unique approach that combines the series' monster-taming elements with a more accessible turn-based combat system. It allows players to not only fight with the monsters but also form relationships and ride them, expanding the depth and enjoyment of the Monster Hunter world.
