Capcom have announced Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin will have free title updates, and a free trial.

As previously reported, the series focuses on working alongside monsters as Riders. Wings of Ruin focuses on a newborn Rathalos runt that cannot fly, while others have fled the land. However, this Razewing Rathalos is foretold to bring about the end of the world with the titular Wings of Ruin, and Hunters and Riders alike want to use it for their own ends.

Discover the mystery behind the beast and the Rage Rays breaking out across the land, beat back foes in turn-based battles along-side your monster allies, and use your bonds to bring down devastation on your foes.

The new trailer confirms not only a free trial available June 25th (with progress transferring into the full game), but that the game will support free content updates; much like Monster Hunter Rise. The first of these will launch July 15th, and will add the Palamute from Monster Hunter Rise as a Monstie partner.

You can find the E3 trailer below.

You can find the full rundown (via Nintendo) below.
