Capcom offered a better look at the designs that led to some major Monster Hunter Stories 2 characters. The company took to Twitter to share pieces of concept art. Things kicked off with a look at Cheval, from both the original game and sequel. Then, we got to see Monster Hunter Stories 2 art for Alwin, Kyle, and Reverto.
First, here’s the Cheval design. In the original game, he was one of the player character’s friends and fellow villagers in Hakum. He later returned for the sequel.

The third image looked at different Reverto expressions, which could be used as a reference sheet for the developers. Like Cheval, he appeared in both games.
