Press Release
Riders can also partake in a new expedition with Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin, the thrilling second entry in the turn-based RPG series. Set in the expansive and dynamic world of Monster Hunter, players follow the footsteps of their grandfather Red, a legendary Rider, and ride Monsties with Ena, a Wyverian girl who has been entrusted with an egg with the potential to hatch into a Rathalos. This legendary monster holds immense power capable of wreaking havoc if its destructive abilities are unleashed. It’s up to players to test the bonds of friendship with Monsties and discover the hidden truths behind ancient legends.
Exoprimal
Exoprimal‘s fourth season will start launch on Apr. 17, and include six additional Exosuit variants, plus a collaboration with Mega Man. Similar to the current Monster Hunter season, the Mega Man collaboration will add a special boss battle against Yellow Devil.
Exoprimal Title Update 4 is preparing for dimensional integration on April 17, 2024. The dino-blasting action game’s latest free content expansion is summoning two new game modes and six additional Exosuit variants to wield in the wargames. The coming season will also include a collaboration with the Mega Man series, which will roll out a rockin’ new boss battle and Blue Bomber-themed cosmetics.
The fresh modes debuting in Title Update 4 include:
- “Time Loop Rebellion” – In this co-op challenge mode, 10 players take on the game’s final boss, the Behemoth, in an even more powerful form. By achieving certain feats in this high-difficulty mode, Exofighters can earn rewards, including golden “first class” Exosuit skins to display their combat mastery.
- “Custom Match” – Players can create their own lobbies in this mode and select exactly which map and mission type they wish to play. These custom rooms can also be shared with players on different platforms, so friends can progress through the story in Dino Survival mode together and team up to take on Savage Gauntlet and Time Loop Rebellion. Custom Match also offers a new setting called “Quick Brawl,” which allows Exofighters to choose and jump straight into their favorite final missions – including those that are more PvP-focused.
Exoprimal Title Update 4 also introduces six shiny new Beta variant Exosuits, boosting the game’s playable roster to a total of 30, plus more modules and a mortar rig for further customization.
