Overall, Monster Hunter Rise seems to be scoring generally the same as past iterations. Monster Hunter Generation currently has a Metacritic of 80 (with a 8.6 user score,) with Monster Hunter World scoring in the low 90’s to high 80’s depending on which platform you look at.
When Does Monster Hunter Rise Release?
Monster Hunter Rise will be releasing this Friday, March 26, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. It will retail at $59.99 USD for both the digital and physical release.
What Platforms is Monster Hunter Rise Available On?
For now, Monster Hunter Rise will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch, however Capcom does have plans to bring the title to PC sometimes early in 2022. This was confirmed by IGN Japan in a interview with producer Ryozo Tsujimoto, who said that due to the high request they have decided to develop a PC release. At this time there are no plans to release it on any other console other than the Nintendo Switch. Considering that the PlayStation and Xbox have Monster Hunter World, chances are we won’t see this version of the mainline hit either platform anytime soon.
