Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Is Landing on Switch – July 9, 2021
Capcom just dropped the news that the latest chapter in the Monster Hunter Stories saga, Wings of Ruin, will hit your Nintendo Switch on 9 July 2021. The announcement came during their recent Monster Hunter Digital Event, and it’s got fans buzzing louder than a Rathalos on the hunt.
What’s the Game About?
Think of it as a follow‑up to 2016’s Monster Hunter Stories, but this time the plot dives deep into a mystery: the big‑bang disappearance of the fierce Rathalos. You’ll be stepping into a wild world where those iconic volcano‑breathing monsters just vanish, and it’s up to you to put the pieces together.
New Amiibo – What’s the Deal?
- Ena – snap her up and unlock a snazzy set of layered armor.
- Razing Ratha – this one’s a beastly choice; her amiibo gives you another cool armor lineup.
- Tsukino – the final piece of the trio, bringing its own special armor collection.
So grab any of the three Angry Hero (eh, heroic) mini‑figures and you’ll get a brand‑new, eye‑catching armor set. It’s like adding a fresh splash of color to your raid looks.
What This Means for Fans
Whether you’re a seasoned hunter or a newbie who can barely swing a sword, this sequel promises fresh puzzles, upgraded visuals, and endless epic hunts. And with the amiibo tie‑ins, you’ll have a show‑stopper wardrobe ready for your next raid venture.
Capcom’s known for making the series even better each time, so if you’re looking forward to more monster slashing fun on Switch, just remember: the clock’s ticking—mark that 9th of July on your calendar and keep those hunting gloves ready!
