Announced late last year, Monster Hunter Rise will bring Capcom’s iconic RPG behemoth to the Nintendo Switch in just a few months’ time, with the game officially slated to launch on March 26, 2021. The title will bring players to Kamura Village, where they’ll be able to once again hop into a brand new hunting ground and go head to head with a series of monsters both new and old.
Those excited about finally getting their hands on Rise won’t have to wait until March to play it though, with the title slated to receive a demo on the Nintendo eShop. Although the game’s recent digital event claimed the demo would be available from today, a subsequent announcement on Twitter has revealed the slice of Monster Hunter Rise content will actually be available from tomorrow. It will only be a limited-time event, however, with players having until February 1 to experience the extended preview.
As for what’s in the demo, Capcom has announced that there will be a significant amount of content available for those who opt-in, including two monster hunts and some training exercises. In terms of the latter, players will be guided through a pair of basic training course, teaching them about Monster Hunter Rise’s core systems as well as how to ride Wyverns, which is one of the Nintendo Switch sequel’s brand new features.
As for the hunts themselves, players will have the option between both a beginner and an intermediate hunt, with the easier option seeing them track and defeat a Great Izuchi. The harder mission will see players tackle a more intimidating foe, as they discover and battle a Mizutsune, which was revealed in the digital event earlier today. Both quests will allow players to explore the Shrine Ruins, which are allegedly a fun testing ground to experiment with the game’s new wire bug mechanic, which lets players grapple around maps or snare certain monsters. Both missions will also be playable in local and online co-op, as well as single-player.
It looks to be a pretty comprehensive overview of Monster Hunter Rise’s various systems and a must-play for fans of the franchise. Seeing as the demo is a limited-time event, those interested should ensure they get involved when the preview drops tomorrow. Regardless, the game is shaping up to be a worthy continuation of the series, and a game that will kickstart the Nintendo Switch’s 2021 lineup with a bang. In other Monster Hunter news, the game recently got a big-screen adaptation, with Resident Evil and Event Horizon director Paul W.S Anderson taking the reigns on the project. Unfortunately, the film has flopped in the eyes of critics, bagging an underwhelming 45 on Metacritic.
Monster Hunter Rise is slated to release on March 26 for Nintendo Switch.
