Capcom has aired a new Monster Hunter Rise event in which it has spoken in depth about the Sunbreak expansion that will be released next month, This has left us with a long video of about 16 minutes in which Ryozo Tsujimoto and Yoshitake Suzuki, producer and director of the saga, have provided more details of this new adventure.
This has let us know that in this gigantic expansion that is coming, there will be a few new monsters that will be added to those shown to date. Among them will be the flying wyvern Seregios, which originally debuted in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and now returns with its sharp scales capable of causing the bleeding state that will put hunters in a bind.
will also appear new versions of two other monsters of the main campaign. One of them is Somnacanth Aurora, capable of expelling a cold breath, while the Amudron Magma will attack with its magma tail anyone who dares stand up to it. Also, all of the above monsters will have new abilities with the new Master Rank quests.
But if there is one creature that stands out above all the others, it is the Malzeno Elder Dragon, the one responsible for bringing the kingdom of Fiorayne to ruin. What makes him so fearsome is his absorption ability that allows him to draw energy from monsters and humans to become even more powerful, as if he were some kind of vampire.
In fact, if it manages to absorb too much life force from the hunters, it will evolve into an even more fearsome form. Luckily, new actions will be enabled for these situations, such as swappable skills to switch between two different sets, as well as Swap Evasion, to quickly dodge an attack while switching between another weapon type.
Another great novelty will be support missions, in which some hunters will give us a cable to fulfill the tasks. These followers have their own specializations and will also be the main characters of the campaign, although they can only be selected in single player mode.
For all this and much more it is clear that the expansion Monster Hunter Rise: Sunset It will give the impression of being a new game. will be the June 30th when it will be released on Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam.
