Monster Hunter Rise
Developer/publisher Capcom Format Switch Origin Japan Release March 26
While World delivered Monster Hunter’s (and Capcom’s) biggest sales to date, the series has always felt most at home on smaller screens. Its own rise began, after all, on PSP, when Japanese players would gather in public for wireless co-op battles. So it’s no surprise that Rise should focus on mobility – your hunter has never been more agile, nor able to get back to the front line so quickly. Still, it’s ironic that Capcom should espouse the value of a wired connection. Yet your bond with the new Wirebug, a multi-faceted insectoid ally, is transformative.
