Monster Hunter Stories – Latest DLC

Today, some new DLC for Monster Hunter Stories went live. First, we have the re-run of the first part of the Legend of Zelda collaboration, which was previously available only at 7-Eleven stores. The contents are the same:

• Special Rules: The Legend of Zelda (Max rank: ★5). Winning battles allows you to get tickets for a special production quest, so that you can craft the Master Sword and the Hylian Shield;
• Special tournament: if you manage to win, you will get Link’s tunic as a reward (but only the first time around);
• Special background for your Rider card;
• Special titles: Master Sword, Triforce, Zelda, Legend, Link, Hyrule.

And starting tomorrow, there will be some more Monster Hunter X (Generations) DLC, with the following:

• special rules: Monster Hunter X. If you manage to win, you will get egg pieces for a special Hellbade Glavenus as Otomon.
• a set of stickers for multiplayer chat

There will also be some special Sub-Quests:

• Sub-Quest #1 (Rank: ★5): allows you to get the Monster Hunter Club uniform;
• Sub-Quest #2 (Rank: ★7): allows you to battle against the Seregios.

But that’s not all… On December 30th and January 1st, two Sub-Quests will be delivered to players:

• December 30th: if you complete this Sub-Quest (Rank: ★7), you will get the Molten Tigrex as an Otomon, and armour based on that monster;
• January 1st: a special quest involving the Yian Garuga (Rank: ★7)
