Monster Hunter Rise

Capcom has published a couple of new Japanese commercials for Monster Hunter Rise ahead of its full release in March. We have both adverts below.

Monster Hunter Rise launches for Switch on March 26.

Monster Hunter Rise demo

It seems the release of Monster Hunter Rise’s demo was more popular than Nintendo anticipated, as the eShop experienced high traffic and slowdowns as soon as it was released a few hours ago. Shortly after these issues, Nintendo Japan announced via their official Twitter that the eShop is now undergoing emergency maintence to work out the problems caused by increased traffic.

This official announcement from Nintendo’s Japanese Twitter account is included below.

The eShop still appears to be down as of this reporting (in both Japan and the US), and no official time has been posted for when it will be back up. However, stay posted and there should be updates regarding this situation soon.

Monster Hunter Rise demo

After announcing a demo for Monster Hunter Rise at The Game Awards last month, Capcom shared more news during a digital event that is currently on-going.

Let’s get the big news out of the way. Switch owners can see what Monster Hunter Rise has to offer when the demo launches today. It will be distributed via the eShop until February 1.

Players will be able to take on a Beginner Quest, Intermediate Quest, Basic Training Quest, and Wyvern Riding Training Quest. The Beginner Quest and Intermediate Quest can be played solo, but they also support local and online play.

It’s not quite a Nintendo Direct, but Capcom will be hosting a Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event not too long from now. Fans can look forward to “big news” and reveals starting at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET / 2 PM in the UK / 3 PM in the UK. A demo was previously announced for this month, so it’s possible we’ll be hearing more about that today.

You can watch the Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event as it happens below. Our coverage will continue during and after the broadcast.

Capcom has announced on its official Twitter that new information regarding Monster Hunter Rise will be shared via livestream on January 7. This follows a video announcement last week regarding new information on the title being released this month.

The livestream will be available on the official Monster Hunter Twitch channel, which can be accessed here.

Additionally, a demo for the game is planned to release sometime this month.

2021 is looking like a big year for Monster Hunter. Along with Monster Hunter Rise, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin are heading to Switch.

Monster Hunter developers Ryozo Tsujimoto and Yasunori Ichinose recently shared a brief video message on social media. It’s now confirmed that more information about Monster Hunter Rise will be shared in January, which makes sense given that a demo will be released during the month and the game isn’t terribly far away.
