What’s New in the Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Update 3

Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin is not a small game by any means, as it takes quite a few hours for players to complete the story and find everything it has to offer. It seems like, however, that this huge amount of content is not enough for developer Capcom, who is going to add more Monsties and quests to the game this month.

Here’s everything new coming to the game in Update 3.

What’s New in the Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Update 3

The first half of the Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Update 3, which will go live tomorrow, September 2, will introduce three additional Monsties – Oroshi Kirin, Soulseer Mizutsune, and Elderfrost Gammoth. Alongside the three monsters, new sub-quests and co-op quests will become available.

The fun, however, is only just starting this week, as more content will be made available as part of Update 3 on September 16. Among the new features coming to the game later this month are a few new challenging co-op quests and sub-quests

The Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Update 3 also fixes several different issues, which you can find detailed below.

• Adjusted some monster voices.
• Fixed an issue where a Lv. 99 Battle Buddy and their Lv. 99 Monstie revert to Lv. 1 because of a certain condition.
• Fixed an issue where an error message appears when accessing multiplayer functions as a result of choosing certain Skin Tones.
• Improved stability to address an issue where the story’s final cutscene stopped playing for some players. If you continue to encounter this issue, we recommend restarting the game periodically.
• Fixed an issue where some sound settings do not carry over upon rebooting the game under certain conditions.
• Fixed an issue where a change is not reflected in Red’s appearance after altering your Rider’s appearance with a Character Edit Ticket.
• Fixed an issue where Palamute’s scarf looks extended after entering a battle and returning to the field because of a certain condition.
• Fixed an issue where Kulve Taroth’s icon and name disappear from the quest description, after completing a certain battle.
• Other miscellaneous bug fixes have been made.
