Monster Hunter Rise " to be released on March 26, 2021 (Friday) by Capcom Co.
In the "Monster Hunter Rise DEMO," which was available until February 1, 2021 (Monday), we were able to experience new elements such as " flying bugs " and " controlling dragons " early on, making us even more eagerly await the release date. In the " Nintendo Direct 2021.2.18 ", a new video was shown, revealing information on new fields and monsters!
「Nintendo Switch モンスターハンターライズ スペシャルエディション」発売決定!同様のデザインのプロコンも登場!
New Fields "Lava Cave" and "Sand Plains" and New Monsters
New Field "Lava Tube
The new field "Lava Tube" is a unique field that is divided into two areas: a scorching area where lava flows in a huge rock cave and an area filled with beautiful, clear, cold water.
The contrasting red and blue colors make for a beautiful sight, but beware of the new " Yakkadaki " monster and the revived " Basalmoth " and " Langrotra " monsters.
The " Yakkadaki," with its characteristic appearance of having thread wrapped around its entire body, fights with a juvenile "Tsukehibaki.
The "Yatsukadaki" uses its strings to block the movements of hunters, and its attacks, in which it breathes out combusted gas, are sure to be a nuisance.
The " Basalmoth " has not appeared since "Monster Hunter Double Cross" released in March 2017.
Basalmoth is as hard as it looks, and sword hunters will have a particularly tough time with it in the early stages of the game...
Langrotra," which rolls around in magma without a care in the world.
The "Langrotra" has a long tongue, paralyzing saliva, and a foul-smelling gas that renders some items unusable, making it a nuisance for hunters.
New Field "Sand Plains
The "Sand Plains" is a desert field that is a regular feature of the MonHun series.
It has a dual aspect, with the sun shining brightly during the day and the moonlight illuminating it at night.
The " oromidros " usually live deep in the mountains, but perhaps due to the influence of the Hundred Dragons of the Night, they have landed near human settlements and attacked hunters.
As its name implies, it uses mud to attack and strengthen itself, and it also makes the ground rise up to hinder the hunter's actions.
It is expected to require a three-dimensional combat experience using the "flying bugs.
In the MonHun series, the " Diablos " has made the second most appearances after the "Rioreus" and "Rioreia.
It attacks hunters with its huge twin horns.
Rio Leia, a familiar face in the MonHun series
Also known as the "Queen of the Land," Rio Leia uses its superior leg strength for thrusting attacks and its poisonous tail to drive hunters away.
In the video, the " Rajan " can also be seen.
The "Rajan" has evolved its motion each time it appears in the series, and in "Monster Hunter Rise," it can be controlled with the "Manipulating Dragon" function!
The "Rajan" is one of the most powerful monsters of all time, so it will be interesting to see how it feels to control it!
What is "Hyakuryu Yagyo"? What is the "Nushi" monster?
The "Hyakuryu Yagyo " is the theme of "Monster Hunter Rise".
In the video, you can see the hunting equipment set up for the "Hyakuryu Yagyo" and the hunters using the "Manipulation Dragon" to fight against the "Hyakuryu Yagyo".
The existence of the " Nushi Aoashira " is also revealed.
The red glow in its eyes and arms is not unlike the "blue-footed boar" that new hunters first encounter....
At the end of the video, the twin receptionists " Hinoe " and " Minoto," who are already popular, appear to be rushing to the rescue.
Will they be able to fight alongside the NPCs in the village, or will the players control the receptionists?
Let's wait for more information!
