About Monster Hunter Rise
Monster Hunter Rise is an action role-playing game that transports players to the vibrant Kamura Village, a tranquil mountain setting that draws tourists with its unique culture and cutting-edge hunting technology. New hunting sites, including the ancient Shrine Ruins and more, await hunters when they equip their armor and choose one of the numerous weapon kinds. Players may utilize things from defeated adversaries to construct unique weapons and armor that will improve their chances of future success and survival as they move through the game. Hunters may take on these tasks alone, or in local or cooperative online play with up to three other players.
Monster Hunter Rise, the next installment in the Monster Hunter series, will provide players an ingenious collection of new tools to hunt down and eliminate menacing creatures. For the first time in a Monster Hunter game, wire-based grappling operations may be done while standing or in mid-air utilizing a “Wirebug,” giving hunting techniques and assaults a whole new level of airborne agility. Palamutes, customizable and rideable “Canyne” companions, will be included in the game, providing players with additional attack possibilities, while “Felyne” Palicoes will return as support characters for duties such as healing.
