• Story
The story begins in a forest near the village of Riders. Three young friends—the hero, Lilia, and Cheval—stumble upon a shining egg.

The trio perform a playful imitation of the Rite of Kinship, only to be shocked when it actually succeeds!

The egg hatches, revealing a baby Rathalos, a flying wyvern also known as "the King of the Skies." The trio affectionately name him "Ratha," and take him back to the village.

Days later, without warning, the village is beset upon by a monster infected by "the Black Blight." They manage to drive it away, but not before it devastates the town—and leaves indelible scars in the hearts of Cheval and Lilia.

A year passes...

The hero receives a Kinship Stone from the Village Chief and officially becomes a Rider. Cheval and Lilia both leave the village, each on their own path. The hero, though separated now from childhood friends, partners up with the cheerful Navirou, and embarks upon a new adventure into the world of hunters.

A story of friendship and triumph await you—ride on into the world of Monster Hunter Stories!

Ratings and reviews

I love it. Really an awesome game. Anyone complaing about graphics doesnt seem to realize this is a nintendo 3ds port. Only problem is capcom not revamping the save feature for mobile. They left it as the original which means you have to save in certain areas (e.g. town). Thats great, for the ds. Not if your playing on a phone and it decides to act as such and requires your attention elsewhere which results in lost progress. So one star reduction. I wish they would "fix" this.

This game is actually pretty fun too play, decent story, awesome Monsters and just an A+ game. The reason I don't rate it 5 stars is because alot of times if you play for a longer period of time, or even sometimes just randomly the app will close itself and you risk losing all your progress up too your previous save point. If you are used too auto saving games then you forget too save as often, though even when you do save it is a bit frustrating to have too save every 10 minutes..

So I enjoy the game very much, I mean I have put more than ten hours into the game. t The reason I'm only giving 3 stars though is that the app makes my phone crash, like every hour or so, which is frustrating due to the fact it doesn't have save option in menu. I mean there are save points but a save option would help me keep eggs i really want. The auto save helps but not by much since you have to enter a main area. Another frustrating part is after the crash it turns offy wifi on my phone.
