Fans awaiting Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin may have some extra amiibo to look forward to. The online retailer Play-Asia reveals three new amiibo listings for the upcoming RPG Monster Hunter Stories 2.
Unlike the mainline Monster Hunter series, this spin-off game features much different gameplay. That said, one aspect it includes is compatibility with Nintendo’s line of figurines, amiibo. In the well-received Monster Hunter Stories, the statues could be tapped to unlock a host of extras. Bonus items like Ancient Potions and other high grade materials gave players a leg up when adventuring in the game world.
This new tease implies that the sequel will be following in the footsteps of its predecessor. At the time, details on Monster Hunter Stories 2 and any potential amiibo are scarce. However, Play-Asia’s listings should give some idea of what is coming. Currently, there are three amiibo likely coming to the game. While there are only item numbers, retail codes, and figure names, that is enough to decipher the mystery.
From the post, gamers will be able to collect a Heroine, Rathalos, and Felyne amiibo for the new title. Heroine is fairly self-explanatory, in that it will be a figure design of the female main character for Monster Hunter Stories 2. Fans of the series will instantly recognize the name Rathalos, as it is a signature beast. The massive Flying Wyvern Rathalos has been beaten and harvested countless times throughout Monster Hunter history. On the listing, the third figure is Airou. But that is Felyne in Japanese, and referring to the small cat-like Palico species found in the series.
Amiibo are a fun way for players to interact with a new game outside of the software. While other Nintendo features disappear over time, its line of amiibo figures and cards continue to grow. It is good to see that despite being a spin-off, Monster Hunter Stories 2 is still apparently getting unique figures. Though the in-game benefits are still unknown, it will likely be similar to the first game.
Of course, this news may come as a disappointment to some. A recent competition announcement for Monster Hunter Rise reveals amiibo with a solid gold design. It is unlikely that the figures for the spin-off title will be as glamorous. In addition, hopeful gamers may expect figures that are more original. Using the main character and the classic sidekick cat may not be particularly impressive to various players. Nevertheless, the amiibo for Monster Hunter Stories 2 will provide a great collectible for fans.
Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin is currently in development for the Nintendo Switch and will release in summer 2021.
