Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection Gears up for Launch With New Trailer, Bonus Features, and DLC
As the release date of Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection approaches, Capcom stuns fans with a new and final pre-launch trailer. The new trailer begins with the background and perspective of the protagonist, the Prince/Princess of Azuria, and later showcases key members of the story’s cast and the conflicting motives and ideals that shape the game’s storyline.
The trailer was followed by a few announcements regarding bonus features and free DLC. Players who have pre-ordered the game will receive a limited edition armor set for Eleanor, the Princess of Vermeil. In addition, players who have existing save data in four select Monster Hunter games will receive corresponding outfits:
⚫︎ Hakum Rider Outfit (Monster Hunter Stories)
⚫︎ Mahana Rider Outfit (Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin)
⚫︎ Kamura Garb (Monster Hunter Rise)
⚫︎ Hope Layered Armor Set (Monster Hunter Wilds)
Rudy, the protagonist’s Palico, will also be getting a special Capcom-themed outfit. Players who wish to claim this free outfit can link their Capcom ID to the game.
Lastly, all players will receive an Accessory: Golden Circlet and Wyvern’s Friend, a Layered Armor set for the protagonist’s closest friend and fellow Ranger, Simon.
Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection will be taking flight on March 13 and will be available for the Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection Arrives March 27 with Online Play
This collection of seven classic Mega Man games gets a modern re-release with enhanced audio-visuals, new customization features, and three types of online play, namely Casual Match, Ranked Match, and Friend Match. Additionally, trading mechanics and the Brother List (or simply the Friends List) have been improved, with players now able to add up to 100 Brothers as opposed to the series’ previous cap of 6.
Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection comes to Steam, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch on March 27, 2026. Pre-orders are now available, with pre-order bonuses of four new Arrangements for the Music Player, and two Character Models for the Main Menu (Geo Stelar in Casual Wear and Omega Xis).
The surprises don’t stop there, as fans can also tune into the Mega Man Star Force anime, which is now available to watch for free in celebration of the game’s release.
Mega Man: Dual Override Reveals Six Finalists in Robot Master Design Contest
When the game was first announced, the development team also held a contest for original Robot Master designs, garnering over 10,000 entries. 20 designs were chosen out of the thousands of submissions, and fans across the globe voted on the top 6: Cleanser Man, Cactus Man, Sweeper Woman, Recycle Man, Juggle Man, and Valve Man.
The final decision now rests in the development team’s hands and will be revealed sometime in the future before release. The winning design will be added to the game as the final addition to complete the eight Robot Master boss lineup.
Street Fighter 6 Alex Coming Soon, and Releases New Summer-Themed Outfits for Dee Jay and Elena
Capcom showcased pro wrestler and Street Fighter 3 protagonist Alex’s gameplay, hyping up his upcoming release on March 17th. With some of the motion capture done by the legendary Kenny Omega, players can look forward to authentic wrestling in action through his gameplay mechanics. Moreover, his original BGM track, GO! ALEX! Hope is Born! is performed by famed Japanese anisong (anime song) band JAM Project.
Capcom also has released a short overview trailer detailing the Outfit 4 inclusions for Dee Jay and Elena, which see them receiving their own summer-themed costumes. These will be released alongside Alex’s arrival. The new costumes were shown alongside new footage of the upcoming Street Fighter movie and bonuses for viewing the Capcom Cup 12 event, namely exclusive skins for A.K.I. and Rashid.
