It's showcase season, with announcements being made every day.
Capcom Co., Ltd. held its "Capcom Showcase" on Tuesday, June 14 at 7:00 a.m. Japan time to reveal the latest information.
The main attraction of the event was "Monster Hunter Rise: Sun Break" ( MHR:S).
The latest trailer, which was highly anticipated and announced in advance, revealed new monsters and information about the demo version!
Here's a recap of the latest third trailer!
The third trailer for MHR:S was released early in the Capcom Showcase.
There is a lot of new information, so let's take a look back and see what we can expect in the future!
New "Jungle" map
The " Jungle " that first appeared in Monster Hunter 2 is back in MHR:S!
Speaking of the "Jungle", monsters such as Babakonga, Ganotototos, and Geryos are impressive in past titles, but what kind of monsters will be found in "MHR:S"?
The big question is what kind of monsters will inhabit "MHR:S"?
The familiar islet that corresponds to Area 10 in past titles is also alive and well!
The seamless map system started with "Monster Hunter World," but "Jungle" is the first map port from a past title where area transfers existed.
Let's hope that this will be a precedent for future remakes of popular maps!
Lampos " is also back.
Fans have been anticipating its appearance since what appeared to be Lampos equipment was shown in a previously released promotional video for "MHR:S", and now it's confirmed!
Espinous" is coming!
Fans of the "Monster Hunter" series have at least once fantasized about a monster port from " Monster Hunter Frontier Online" ( MHF).
MHF" was the first online game in the Monster Hunter series to be released for Windows, and it was popular for its system and original monsters that set it apart from the numbered titles.
MHF" has been loved by many hunters since 2007, and after many years of updates, the service will end in 2019.
We thought we would never see the many monsters developed for "MHF" again.
PR TIMES
The hunters on the Internet were thrilled to see their unexpected return!
At one point, " Espinas " was the number one trending topic on Twitter in Japan, and the long-awaited implementation was a huge hit.
This is the first time in 14 years, since "Monster Hunter Portable 2ndG" in 2008, that a monster from "MHF" has appeared in a numbered title!
The "Daimyo Zami" is back!
One of the representative monsters in the "Jungle", " Daimyo Zami" is back!
It has been confirmed that it will appear together with its partner, the " Shogun Gizami," a crustacean of the same species that was previously announced!
PR TIMES
The "Daimyo-zami" is a robust monster with a flying dragon skull on its back and huge claws in front of its face.
The skull on its back is often made of monoblast, but its return in "MHR:S" is not expected....
Gore Magara is back!
Gore Magara, the signature monster of "Monster Hunter 4," is back after a 5-year absence!
Since the appearance of "Balfaluk" in "Monster Hunter Rise," there have been expectations for its appearance, as it has the same skeletal structure as "Balfaluk.
PR TIMES
The "Gore Magara" grows and molts to become a Shagar Magara.
The existence of the "secret tower" (to be described later) also makes us expect the appearance of Sh agar Magara.
New monster "Yatsukadaki subspecies
The subspecies of the Yatsukadaki, which first appeared in "Monster Hunter Rise," makes its first appearance!
The new subspecies of the Yatsukadaki, which first appeared in "Monster Hunter Rise," makes its first appearance!
PR TIMES
Its reddish-black appearance is more obvious than that of the Yatsukadaki.
It also has an explosive attribute, making it a poor match for certain types of weapons.
Free title update!
Of course, there will be free title updates after "MHR:S" goes on sale!
The first one will be released in August 2022 and will feature several monsters, including the "Narugakuruga Rarity " and a new map called " The Secret World of the Tower "!
Narugakuruga Rare Species
The " Narugakuruga Rare Species", which had disappeared since its first appearance in "Monster Hunter 3G" released in 2011, is back in "MHR:S" for the first time in about 11 years!
The "Narugakuruga Rare Species" has a stealth ability, and is a nasty monster that attacks with its powerful poisonous needle and large body.
Rare species also include Rio Reus, Rio Reia, and Tigalex, but what other monsters will appear?
New map "The Secret World of the Tower
PR TIMES
The first free update includes a new map, "The Secret World of Towers"!
Assuming that it corresponds to the "tower" in past games, we can expect to see giraffes, rare Tigarex species, and the ancestral dragon Miraboreas (a.k.a. Miraluz).
In addition, Yamatsukami is expected to become a trending topic on Twitter.
Will the Ukigake Ryu, which has not appeared in a numbered title since "Monster Hunter 2ndG," make a comeback?
