Pre-orders Open Today for Digital Version of Monster Hunter Rise on Nintendo Switch

Get ready to embark on a thrilling adventure with Monster Hunter Rise, as pre-orders open today for its digital versions on the Nintendo Switch. To fully enjoy the online multiplayer mode, however, you'll need to have an active subscription to Nintendo Switch Online and ensure your console is connected to the internet.

To sweeten the deal, various bonuses will be offered when pre-ordering the game. These include layered armor sets for Palamutes and Palicos, as well as a talisman item to aid newcomers in the early stages of the game.

Three different editions of the game will be available: Standard, Deluxe, and Collector's. The latter includes everything mentioned above, plus an exclusive Magnamalo amiibo, sticker pack, and Kamura mark enamel pin. The Deluxe edition features the base game alongside a bundle of DLC containing armor, gestures, and cosmetics.

In addition to the game, three new amiibo figures will also be released featuring Palamute, Palico, and Magnamalo. These figures are set to become instant collectibles for fans of the series.

As with Monster Hunter World, monsters in Rise can encounter and fight each other without player input. This adds an extra layer of realism and immersion to the game's world.

For those who pre-order the digital version before August 17th, 2022 at 16:59 CEST, you'll receive bonus content as a thank-you for your early purchase. The digital version will become available starting June 30th, 2022.

Monster Hunter Rise promises to deliver an exciting experience with its new monsters, including the fire-breathing bird Aknosom, inflating amphibian Tetranadon, wolf-like bird wyvern Great Izuchi, and the game's headline monster, Magnamalo. More returning and new monsters will be announced in the coming weeks.

Get ready to dive into this thrilling adventure on June 30th, 2022, with the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Deluxe Kit set to release separately starting that day as well.
