A NEW GENERATION

Become the grandson of legendary Rider Red, and set off on your own quest across the stunning Hakolo Island. The story begins with a fateful encounter with Ena, a Wyverian girl who has been entrusted with an egg with the potential to hatch into a legendary Rathalos, which could wreak havoc if awakened to its destructive power.

Embark on a journey that will test the bonds of friendship in a changing world, and discover the truth behind the legends of old. Lead your rare black-winged Rathalos on a courageous journey and show your strength in the heat of battle.

MY TURN!

Experience turn-based strategy battles, similar to the likes of Pokemon, Final Fantasy, and Tales of Vesperia. Find strengths in your battle party by using specific attacks to dominate foes with three main attack types - Power, Technique, and Speed.

Use the power of Kinship to unleash a powerful, heavy-hitting attack where Rider and Monstie land a devastating blow.

MEET THE MONSTIES

Meet Kayna - a free-spirited and has a bubbly Rider from the Mahana Village - as well as Avinia, who rides a Barioth called ‘Frostfang’ and is dedicated to rebuilding the village of Kuan Village after it was destroyed by the Black Blight.

Navirou, a Felyne companion, acts as your guide and is determined to help you as you endeavor to become a fully-fledged Rider.
