Description:
Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is a massive, highly anticipated expansion for the action RPG Monster Hunter Rise. It's not a standalone game, so you must own the base game to play it, and you need to have completed the 7-star hub quest "Serpent Goddess of Thunder" in the base game to access the new content.
This expansion significantly deepens the Monster Hunter Rise experience by introducing a wealth of new content and features, including:
-
A New Adventure and Story: The expansion takes you to a distant new land, where you are tasked with investigating a new monstrous threat to the kingdom. This new storyline is centered around the "Three Lords"—the powerful monsters Malzeno, Lunagaron, and Garangolm.
-
A New Hub: Elgado Outpost: This new base of operations serves as your home base for the expansion's content, complete with a cast of new characters and allies.
-
Master Rank Quests: A new, higher difficulty level for hunters, featuring tougher monsters and more challenging hunts.
-
New and Returning Monsters: You'll encounter a variety of new monsters, including the formidable "Three Lords," as well as classic fan-favorite monsters from previous Monster Hunter games that were not in the base game.
-
New Locales: The expansion introduces brand new hunting grounds to explore and battle in, such as the lush, forested Citadel.
-
Improved Gameplay: The expansion refines the core hunting mechanics with new abilities and Silkbind moves for all 14 weapon types, adding a new layer of tactical depth and flexibility to combat.
-
Follower Collab Quests: A new single-player feature where you can go on hunts with various story characters, who will help you in battle.
-
Anomaly Research Quests: New post-game content that lets you take on even more powerful "afflicted" monsters for unique rewards.
In short, Sunbreak is the ultimate upgrade for Monster Hunter Rise, providing a new story, a fresh new world to explore, and more monsters and challenges for hunters to tackle.
