Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection Arrives on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC in March 2026
Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection will launch worldwide on March 13, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. The announcement came during the latest Nintendo Direct, accompanied by a brand-new story and gameplay trailer.
Originally announced in July 2025 with a broad 2026 release window, the new trailer dives deeper into the game’s premise, introducing players to a tale centered on the birth of Twin Ratholos and their mysterious role in shaping the fate of nations.
Players will step into the role of the heir to Azuria, embarking on an adventure filled with exploration, bonds, and battles. Much like its predecessors, Monster Hunter Stories 3 emphasizes monster-riding, friendship, raising creatures, and turn-based combat, all within a vibrant world populated by a colorful cast of characters.
The narrative explores the fragile divide between two warring nations, with the Twin Ratholos symbolizing both hope and dread - capable of uniting the nations in peace or plunging them into devastating conflict.
Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin proved to be a major success, surpassing 2 million units sold as of June 2024. Given the franchise’s growing popularity and Capcom’s recent track record of delivering strong-selling titles, Twisted Reflection is poised to be another major hit for the company’s RPG lineup.
