Capcom earns one’s hard earned money through this Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Collector’s Edition! The game officially launches today, as Monster Hunter for series newbies, as one would be led to believe. There’s no need for much preamble, let’s just see what the goods are.
THE BOX
The whole thing is packaged in a box using the game’s key visual. There’s nothing much to it, except it’s big enough to accommodate the goodies it holds.
THE BADGES
The collector’s edition comes with three “instant photo-style” tin badges of the Wings of Ruin cast, featuring Avinia (with her Japanese name, Ayuria), Ena and Kyle. The names are all in different fonts, looking like they were signed by the characters themselves.
THE POUCH
This is a three-way pouch, emblazoned with the Wings of Ruin emblem. It comes with two straps of different lengths to facilitate the “three-way” function. Otherwise, it looks really ordinary inside.
THE POSTER
Our set came with the game poster, of the game’s key visual.
THE ACRYLIC STAND
Last but not least, is the acrylic stand featuring the game’s cast, and the protagonists. Action pose, everybody!
THE FULL SET
And here’s the full set all together! Have you already begun your journey?
For someone who has absolutely no clue about the series as a whole, well, perhaps this will be an easier gateway – Rise aside – into the series as a whole and be more forgiving about the intense marketing of Rathalos. Who can say?
