Today, we finally got the very first trailer for the game, along with some details about the anime itself for Monster Hunter Stories: Ride On Trailer.
It was announced that the anime series would debut on October, and would get a new episode every Sunday at 8.30AM on Fuji TV. Since new anime series generally debut during the first week of the month, and the game comes out on October 8th, we can assume that the first episode will air on October 2nd.
Check out the Trailer:
“The main character is named Ryuto, who rides a Rathalos. He has childhood friends Cheval and Lilia, both of them riding on a Rathian.
Ryuto is a boy who lives in a Riders village located at a corner of the world of Hunters. In contrast to Hunters who hunt monsters for their living, Riders form bonds with monsters and live together with them. Riders also own Bond Stone which awakens hidden abilities in monsters they’ve formed a bond with.
The 12-year old Ryuto, who is cheerful, vigorous and full of curiosity, has a dream of becoming the best Rider in the world. He goes on an adventure to the outside world. Accompanying him in his adventure are his childhood friends Cheval who is kind, Lilia who is full of intellectual curiosity, and Nabiru who is a frivolous felyne.”
