Everything you need to know for the Monster Hunter Rise demo
January 7, 2021
Monster Hunter Rise releases this March but Capcom has some surprises in store for loyal franchise fans. Rise marks the first main series entrant to the Nintendo Switch. Consequently, the game adopts many developments from the insanely famous Monster Hunter: World while adding several new game changes.
A return to form
The Nintendo Switch Monster Hunter game returns to the roots of the developers’ homeland as highlighted by its feudal era Japan-style setting. The soundtracks and maps featured in the trailer all scream Japanese influence. This is no doubt a bid into reclaiming Monster Hunter’s place at the top of the portable gaming scene. The previous MH game that captured the attention specifically of the Japanese players was Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for the 3DS. There has since been a void left behind in the years that followed leaving many players with nothing to play for their daily commutes.
