Capcom today announced Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, the latest installment in its popular RPG series, during a Nintendo Direct presentation. The new adventure is set to launch in 2026 for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection plunges players into a world on the brink, as the nations of Azuria and Vermeil face a mysterious crystal encroachment. Hope emerges with the discovery of an ancient Rathalos egg, only to be overshadowed by the hatching of a second, ominous twin Rathalos. These twins bear the same mark as the “twin Skyscale Rathalos,” harbingers of destruction from a 200-year-old civil war. As the environment deteriorates and monsters face extinction, the specter of war looms once again.
Players will assume the role of the heir to Azuria, a protagonist blessed with unique abilities who rises to become the leader of the Rangers and the sole Rathalos Rider in the kingdom. Their duties involve protecting monsters and investigating egg quartz. A life-altering event propels them to investigate the strange phenomena plaguing the world, leading them to the forbidden land beyond the northern Meridian.
Joining the hero is Eleanor, princess of Vermeil, who offers herself as a hostage to Azuria in an effort to ease tensions between the two nations. Accompanied by her Monstie Anjanath, Eleanor seeks to uncover the true intentions of her sister, the Queen of Vermeil. Bound by the encroaching calamity, the duo embarks on a journey into forbidden territory.
For a glimpse into the new adventure, the reveal trailer is available on the official Monster Hunter YouTube channel.
