Capcom is set to launch Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin on the Switch and PC via Steam in just a few months, and more pre-order info has come out of the woodwork. Fans of the original Monster Hunter Stories back on the 3DS will be happy to know that there's a ton of neat content and goodies that they'll be able to get by ordering one of the special editions of the game.

Monster Hunter Stories is a spin-off of the mainline franchise that features a turn-based battle system and the player acts as a Monster Rider, instead of a Monster Hunter. The side series is known to be more cinematic and narrative-focused than the core games, and with this new entry, Capcom is really putting the focus on the story.
