| Darwinianevolution said: How big is the Monster Hunter Stories spinoff over there? MH in general is very popular, but I'm not sure if the spinoff can get the same numbers. |
Yes, this is partially surprising. MH:Stories got total about 320k sales. So, with current package sales reported in media like Famitsu, we can predict MH:Stories 2's total sales would be more than it.
As far as I remember, MH:Stories has been rated better than anticipated and Capcom has been trying to popularize as independent brand by animation and so on. Moreover, MH:Stories 2 has been advertised with MH:Rise time after time. It might be very helpful to generate awareness among MH players.
