For you amiibo addicts out there, yes, there will be amiibos available for Monster Hunter Stories on day one. There will be three amiibos available, and they are: One-Eyed Rathalos and Rider (Female), One-Eyed Rathalos and Rider (Male), and Nabiru. Capcom also mentioned that a second set of amiibos are planned for release in winter this year. You can check out in-game screenshots and a quick look at the amiibos in the gallery below.

Monster Hunter Stories is an RPG that follows the story of a young rider who leaves his village to explore the world. He eventually gets caught up in the investigation of an ancient legend. The game looks to be quite the departure from the typical Monster Hunter game you’d expect, and it certainly seems like this entry will be a lot more story-focused.

There’s no news of a western release date just yet, but we’ll keep you updated as more news comes our way.
