Capcom has released a new version of its Monster Hunter Rise demo (version 1.0.2). This update adds on to the demo originally released for the game in January by giving players a new quest to hunt the monster Magnamalo. 

New players that don’t already have the demo on their Switch can download the second version directly from the eShop with this quest included. But players that already have the first version on their Switches can now download the update. The quests in this version can be played 30 times before the demo becomes unplayable.

The full version of Monster Hunter Rise is scheduled to release on Switch on March 26, 2021.
