The legendary monster training duology, “Monster Rancher” and “Monster Rancher 2”, is back!
Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
13 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Jul 30 → 0.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
my childhood game, it's so sad they `killed` this IP I was always prefer monster rancher than pokemon (digimon still way better, but I am not pokemon fan, so monster rancher is much superior than pokemon - in my opinion)
its time for your nuts oil.
Quem diria que, depois de tantos anos, já mais velho — eu estaria aqui curtindo novamente um jogo que marcou minha infância. Quando eu era bem novo, viajei com minha família para visitar parentes. Levei meu PS1 na esperança de conseguir jogos novos por lá. Em uma feira, encontrei um CD com arte de “Monstros S.A.” e por isso eu comprei, sem saber que era essa delícia de jogo. e foi assim que eu conheci um dos jogos que mais me marcou o MONSTER RANCHER 2. Naquele tempo eu jogava esse jogo lotado de textos em inglês simplesmente por instinto pois eu não entedia absolutamente nada, mas a ideia de criar o monstro e batalhar com outros fez eu aprender bem o inglês na época. Obviamente, isso não é uma avaliação objetiva. Não vou ficar pontuando gráficos, lore ou coisas do tipo — isso aqui é pura nostalgia e experiência pessoal. Ainda assim, o jogo continua divertido, viciante e com uma progressão muito única até hoje. Alguns códigos de monstros que achei interessantes: The Dark Days Pursuit of Happiness / Sara Diamond Na versão DX, você não usa CDs físicos como antigamente, agora é tudo por nome. (Não joguei o 1, apenas o 2.)

13 on sale2 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 2 “not sold” markets are read from the Steam price pass of Aug 28: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price in those. The 13 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

The window is small, the controls are strange, and the game is quite simple...all of which is what you would expect from a game that is decades old. I played this when it first came out years ago, and now I am playing it with my daughter as a shared experience. It is truly a classic game, and if you used to enjoy it then you will absolutely enjoy this PC port. If you have never played this...make sure you want to. It has a lot of text based play, is reliant on click and wait tactics for the bulk of play, and the battles are 2D %hit style fights. It is reasonably fun, but VERY dated.
é um otimo jogo... e nostalgico... mas infelizmente achei fraco como fizeram pois é simplismente o jogo emulado... acho ate que no emulador teria mais opçoes de audio e grafico kkk e nem uma traduçao fizeram unica vantagem é que pode criar monstros apenas usando nome de famosos e tals. Pra quem quer muito jogar o game vale a pena mas eu acho que podiam ter feito melhor.
i remember this game being fun and a lot different in the 90's. This is dumb as hell and you cant even go full screen. waste of 30 dollars
honestly? not bad
Not a bad game, just tricked myself into buying it because of nostalgia when i saw the game. Just ain't for me
Nostalgia ! Well played it 25 years ago and still like it'
