New Game Details
[h3]◆ Characters[/h3]
Clarissa
The queen of Vermeil and Eleanor's older sister. She insists that returning to the Sacrosanctum is the only option to save Vermeil from the scourge of the Crystal Encroachment. She knows that doing so would break the covenant with the Wyverians, and is prepared even to go to war with Azuria to achieve her aim.

Corbin
A Hunter and explorer, traveling from Hunter territory. He and his Palico PK take on assignments from the Guild as they travel where Corbin's curiosity leads them. Though he's aware of the existence of Riders, he's never met any in person. As such, he's quite excited to meet the Rangers.

PK
He travels with Corbin, supporting him as his loyal Palico. He's especially skilled at waking Corbin up—and not especially gently. With daily practice, he's perfected the most efficient wake-up method.

[h3]◆ More Powerful Monsters[/h3]
Arkveld
A Flying Wyvern with chain-like wings that end in bladed tendrils. It can extend and retract these tendrils at will, dispatching prey with deadly efficiency.

Ajarakan
This Fanged Beast affixes molten metals to its carapace, and the friction resulting from those minerals rubbing together allows it to accumulate heat and cause explosions.

Malzeno
This elegant Elder Dragon is known for its silver carapace. It stalks the night to drain the energy from its prey. Once it has drunk its fill, it reveals its dreadful true form in all its glory.

[h3]◆ Introducing the Incredibly Powerful Calamitous Elder Dragons![/h3]
Calamitous Elder Dragon Namielle
This Elder Dragon is completely enveloped in liquid and can command vast quantities of water. Unique electric organs allow it to charge water attacks with electricity, creating massive explosions.

[h3]◆ Rite of Channeling[/h3]

The Rite of Channeling is a Rider technique that combines the genes of Monsties and can awaken new skills. It's been made even easier to use in this entry, so check out the official website for details!

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection Habitat Restoration Trailer
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

New Game Details Endangered Species and Invasive Monsters
The protagonist is captain of a group called the Rangers. One of their duties is finding endangered species' eggs, in order to restore the ecosystem. With the Crystal Encroachment threatening the ecosystem, and invasive monsters running amok, Rathalos are not the only species considered endangered.

Invasive Monsters
Invasive monsters are incredibly strong, able to threaten other monsters and take over their territory. Dens in their territory sometimes contain endangered species' eggs.

Invasive Monster Retreat Battles
Invasive monsters can't be easily defeated by normal means, so instead the Rangers search for clues to cause the monster to retreat to its den, putting a new twist on the classic Stories gameplay.

Sneak into the invasive monster's den while it's sleeping... then grab the endangered egg and run for it!

Return Hatched Monsters to the Wild with Habitat Restoration
After hatching an endangered monster, release it into the wild, allowing it to put down roots and rebuild the species. When a monster population has been restored, their eggs can be found and hatched into Monstie partners. Hatching monsters and returning them to the wild is a practice the Rangers call Habitat Restoration. It can be performed not only with endangered species, but with regular monsters as well.

Hatching and releasing monsters into the wild will affect that area's Ecosystem Rank. As the Ecosystem Rank rises, eggs become easier to obtain, and Monsties can hatch with special skills or genes.

Dual-Element Monsters
Raising the Ecosystem Rank can even allow you to find monsters imbued with that area's element.

For example, a monster which is normally thunder element may be influenced by the fire element of the area in which it is hatched, and be born with fire skills. This even affects the monster's appearance.

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection provides a new gameplay cycle where you can protect monsters, preserve their ecosystem, and truly roleplay as a Ranger. Form a new, exciting relationship with the Monsties you raise!

Arkveld
You've already seen Chatacabra and Rey Dau from Monster Hunter Wilds... Now get ready for Arkveld!

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection will release on March 13th, 2026, with pre-orders available now. Ride your Monsties through the exciting open world, engage in satisfying strategic battles, and raise Monsties in a new way with Habitat Restoration. We're confident we've created a rich and fun RPG experience.

We'll reveal more details on the way to the release, so stay tuned!
