Comments on Monster Hunter Stories for Android

★★★★☆ DRAGOJIN 999 · Aug 27, 2026
Just bought the game for the second time despite owning it on the same account before. There was a discount to my region, Turkey, for both so maybe that caused some issues. It's not that much compared to the original price but the developer team and google play should note that.
★★★★★ Euen Kurt Niem Almario · Apr 14, 2026
Update the game to the latest version like the PC and Switch version that can get all Elder Dragons
★☆☆☆☆ Ikaruga 21 · Apr 15, 2026
The sound bug is still persisted on newer Phone models. Please update the game or bring the remastered version to Play Store.
★★☆☆☆ Aaron Marcus Feliciano · Jul 1, 2026
Loved the game but very disappointing you basically made us buy it just for money and not do anything about it for a like what a decade?, seriously update it cap com if you see this message it's a great game do something about it
★☆☆☆☆ Kal Ky · Jan 22, 2026
Hello, can you help us by updating the audio system on the game? I recently played MHS, but I realized when there's some random high graphic battle and especially when in the city of Aldebaran, the audio/music system seems to be rough and laggy, I experienced an intermittent audio while on the city especially when running and exploring the open world. Please update and fix. Thank you, 3 stars for now UPDATE: Tried installing new phone, Audio ISSUE ! 😡 SAME² stutter!

• Game Features
- Recruit countless Monsties!
Monsties, and the bonds you form with them, are the backbone of your adventure. Explore vast environments and dungeons to find monster dens, and bring back the eggs you find to hatch new Monsties!

- New features for the smartphone version!
New improvements include beautiful high-resolution graphics, improved user interface, and a new auto-save feature!

• Story
The story begins in a forest near the village of Riders. Three young friends—the hero, Lilia, and Cheval—stumble upon a shining egg.

The trio perform a playful imitation of the Rite of Kinship, only to be shocked when it actually succeeds!

The egg hatches, revealing a baby Rathalos, a flying wyvern also known as "the King of the Skies." The trio affectionately name him "Ratha," and take him back to the village.

Days later, without warning, the village is beset upon by a monster infected by "the Black Blight." They manage to drive it away, but not before it devastates the town—and leaves indelible scars in the hearts of Cheval and Lilia.

A year passes...

The hero receives a Kinship Stone from the Village Chief and officially becomes a Rider. Cheval and Lilia both leave the village, each on their own path. The hero, though separated now from childhood friends, partners up with the cheerful Navirou, and embarks upon a new adventure into the world of hunters.

A story of friendship and triumph await you—ride on into the world of Monster Hunter Stories!

However, after updating to Ver.1.0.2, you will be able to access all of the Titles obtained from Battle Ranks.
