Final Thoughts
While Monster Hunter Stories 2’s main feature is turn-based battles, it has so much to offer outside this. The progress doesn’t feel overly grindy, and provides a good balance with exploration, story and the Monstie hatching system. The story is intriguing but feels more light-hearted in places, with characters such as Felyne Nivirou cracking a joke or two keeping things more up beat.

The game is a bit overwhelming to begin with especially for newer players to the Stories series, as there are a lot of mechanics to learn. Those who have played other Monster Hunter titles will find some familiarity especially with items, but may notice that they don’t quite work in the same way as their Action combat counterparts. However, once you get the basics down the combat can be somewhat challenging, even if slightly random, but still gives enough strategy which is enjoyable.

My only real gripe about the game is that the transition between encountering monsters and going into battle feels quite slow, with this very old school slow motion zoom in which can get old pretty fast. However, there is a lot to like about this game from its silly humor to loveable cartoon version characters such as the Felynes, and you can easily sink a number of hours into just gaining new monster eggs, or forging new weapons and armor.

If you like turn-based games such as Pokemon Sword and Shield, I think you will find Monster Hunter Stories 2 scratching that similar turn-based itch, only with much more to do. The game is fun to play, with well thought out combat concepts, and some light-hearted silliness that just adds to its charm.

With so much to do in-between battles and a decent amount of content, the price tag seems worth it here. In addition, Capcom has recently announced that the game will receive regular updates post-launch, with five free content updates already announced.

Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin releases on Nintendo Switch and PC on July 9th.
