Monster Hunter Rise: Official Complete Guide

Monster Hunter Rise[a] is an action role-playing game developed and published by Capcom for the Nintendo Switch. It is the sixth mainline installment in the Monster Hunter series after Monster Hunter: World (2018) and was released worldwide on March 26, 2021. A Microsoft Windows version is currently in development and is planned for an early 2022 release.

Rise follows many of the new conventions established for the series in World while also introducing new features and mechanics, including a new animal companion called a Palamute that can be used to ride across the map or into battle, and the use of Wirebugs to traverse the game world and mount and ride certain monsters. The game received generally positive reviews upon release and has shipped more than 7 million copies worldwide since launch.
