The Monster Hunter series has slowly started to introduce more quality of life improvements in order for players of all experience to enjoy all of the hunting goodness without being intimidated by the game’s deep and somewhat confusing mechanics. One example of such improvements happens to be the ability to lock on to monsters while on hunts. For players who are just now jumping into the Monster Hunter Rise demo and are searching for how to lock on, here’s how to do it.
Now, for Monster Hunter Rise, there are two different ways that players can lock on to large enemy monsters. There’s a Target Camera option and a Focus Camera option, and these two can be changed at any time by going into the menu with the + button, heading to the last page, and then pressing on Options. Once players are in options, they need to go into the camera setting and then down to Camera Style.
Target Camera will be the default option and seems to be the preferred one for most players. To do it on the field, players need to simply press down on the right stick to choose the monster that they want to lock on to and then just tap the L button. The camera will then spin towards the monster, allowing hunters to be aware of the location of the monster.
However, for players using the Focus Camera option, it works the same way, but the reticle will stay on the monster until the L button is pressed again, which can be great for those new to the series as they don’t have to move the right stick at all to control the camera themselves, as the game will do it for them. The monsters that can be locked on will show up on the top-right corner of the screen, as seen in the screenshot below.
That section in the top-right will also show important information on the monster that players are fighting against. If there’s a green icon under the monster’s image, that means that it is ready to be mounted and controlled; if it’s blue, that means the monster is exhausted and is close to being slain, and if it’s a purple icon, that just means that the monster is currently being lured.
Monster Hunter Rise will launch for the Nintendo Switch on March 26, 2021. The second demo is available now as a free download on the eShop.
