Monster Hunter Tri: High Tides is a remake of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate that follows a Monster Hunter World style formula with large maps with no loading zones, distinct monster behavioural traits, etc: it does however follow a formula similar to the older games with village and hub quests being separated: it also features every monster from 3 Ultimate, alongside a high number of brand new ones/returning ones - every hub that was present in a 3rd gen game returns in this game.

Setting
The entire game hub-wise, takes place within the 3rd gen locales of the Old World - although some older gen maps do return in a MH World style: with open maps, distinct fauna, locale alterations based on the time of day, etc.

Story
Low Rank

Exactly the same plot as MH Tri - Earthquakes affecting Moga Village with Lagiacrus being blamed for it - the hunter takes on various quests and gets tougher and tougher until they're strong enough to defeat Lagiacrus but the true reveal of Ceadeus being the one responsible unfolds - banging the underwater caverns to maintain its horn growth and make sure they don't grow over its eyes. Cha-Cha and Kayamba's relationship remains the same as they fight over the Ancient Mask.

High Rank

The defeat of Ceadeus has granted the hunter a lot of merit with a free job offering to work for the Guild executives in Yukumo Village. a Bulldrome harasses the caravan midway before you're then tasked to hunt it down - after defeating the Bulldrome, the Yukumo Chief greets and welcomes you into Yukumo Village where you proceed to tackle High Rank quests, visit locales you've yet to have visit and face against monsters you've never faced before. Early in High-Rank, a resurgence of schools of Plesioth have swarmed the coasts of the Jungle and Moga Woods, wreaking havoc - The hunter is sent to to take out one of the piscines in the Jungle while another set of hunters deal with the others. After the piscine swarms were taken care off, research on how such a huge occupation of Plesioth ends off on some type of predator driving off the piscines but what kind of predator?... The hunter returns to Yukumo Village to meet a depressed Kayamba, revealing that Cha-Cha has been abducted by a Shakalaka tribe in the Great Forest. The hunter and Kayamba venture together to find the tribe and come face to face with the King Shakalaka and a captured Cha-Cha, a fight ensues before the King is defeated and retreats. Cha-Cha is freed as both Shakalakas apologise to each other and promise to work together to find the true power of the mask and share it when they've discovered it.

The hunter is granted access to higher-ranked quests that take them to differing locales from the ones they're used to in their past endeavors such as the Arid Canyon and the Underhive.

Eventually, the hunter is assigned to investigate Moga Woods where a dead Plesioth lies on the shores with strange marks on it, as if a barrage of explosions killed it... right before encountering a surge of electricty from the waters as a snakelike creature shoots bursts of lightning at the shores before then swimming away: revealed to be an Eelekiose, a lethal species of Eel-like fish whoms prowess in electricity is superb - The hunter is sent to out down the Eelekiose and succeeds thoroughly, speculated to be the one responsible to have stirred up the Plesioth schools although research is still going into the obliterated Plesioth corpse with the strange marks.
