Monster Hunter Rise Demo hits Switch Today

Capcom announced today that a time-limited demo for Monster Hunter Rise is coming today to the eshop for Nintendo Switch users.

The demo, which will run until February 1st, will allow you and your friends to sample 4 quests set in the Shrine Ruins area, a beginner and intermediate quest, as well as two tutorial quests to get you up to speed on the use of the Wirebug, and the ability to ride Wyverns, a feature that is new to the series.

The beginner quest will see you trying to tackle a Great Izuchi, whereas the intermediate quest will test your skills against a much more formidable Mizutsune.

Each of the 14 weapon types will be available for use, allowing players to grasp the understanding behind the entire arsenal.

The demo can be played both online and locally, and players can expect to bring Palicoes and the new Palamute dogs along for the ride.
