Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak will feature an entirely new story, as well as new locations to visit and gameplay mechanics. It will introduce the new Elder Dragon Malzeno as well as the new Master Rank. The Shogun Ceanataur from Monster Hunter 2 will also return, as will several other monsters from previous games in the series, including Monster Hunter 4's Seregios, as well as two new monsters, Magma Almudron and Aurora Somnacanth.

Monster Hunter Rise was released on the Nintendo Switch in March 2021, and on PC via Steam on January 12. The game has sold over 8 million copies worldwide, both physically and digitally.
