Recently Capcom presented a new Monster Hunter Digital Event, which featured new updates for Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin and Monster Hunter Rise.
First, the Monster Hunter team revealed a new trailer for Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin. Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin will release on July 9.
The team continued and revealed some new features for the game. The first feature they revealed was called the “Rage-Rays.” The “Rage-Rays” are glowing pits that emit light that causes nearby monsters to become more violent. The second feature is that Players will be able to go into dens and collect Eggs from dens similar to the first game. Players will then need to bring the Eggs back to town so that they can hatch them and gain new Monsties. The next feature they revealed is called The “Rite of Channeling.” The Rite of Channeling allows players to transfer special genes from one Monstie to another. Each gene is represented by various elements colors and also by they attack type. By aligning three genes by their pattern or element, the Monstie will receive a “Bingo Bonus,” which will give them additional strength. The various genes will also allow monsters to gain abilities they wouldn’t naturally have on their own.
