After launching on PC earlier this year, Monster Hunter Rise will soon be available on more platforms. Capcom announced today that the game will be available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S on January 20, 2023. On the same day, it will be playable via Xbox Game Pass for console, PC and cloud. A new trailer was aired for the announcement:

​

Monster Hunter Rise is the latest installment in the action RPG series and transports players to Kamura Village, a colorful and tranquil setting that attracts visitors with its unique culture and innovative hunting technologies. The core gameplay experience in Monster Hunter Rise stays true to the previous highly-praised Monster Hunter entries. Hunters must equip their armor and select from one of the 14 different weapon types to tackle daunting foes. As players defeat monsters and progress through the game, items carved from fallen foes can be used to craft unique weapons and armor that increases their chances of survival. Hunters can tackle these challenges solo, or with up to three other hunters in cooperative online play.

The Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 versions of Monster Hunter Rise support 4K resolution, 60 fps as well as 3D audio. Ranged and shielded weapons will also make use of DualSense adaptive triggers on PlayStation 5. Console players can also look forward to the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak expansion in Spring 2023.

What does dead mean, then?

Boring, shadow of former self, not popular within old core community

Ok. I thought it was a fun variation but I started with World. I do prefer the massive monster variety with GU.

Hmmm, I kinda figured this game was meant to be World's equivalent to the Freedom games and they would have skipped putting this on PS and Xbox as a result. Guess I was wrong.

Ehh, it's still cool to see, regardless. Maybe I'll finally give this game a shot, then.
