The Monster Hunter Rise Demo Returns This Week And Now Features Magnamalo

A Monster Hunter digital event debuted this week and provided a series of new details for Monster Hunter Rise and confirmed that the Monster Hunter Rise demo will be available yet again this week, but this time it comes with more monsters to hunt. The demo will be available for Nintendo Switch players via the Nintendo eShop this Friday, March 12.

The demo will again feature all 14 weapon types, the same monsters available in the last demo, plus a quest to hunt and slay Magnamalo. There’s also a new challenge that revolves around the monster Mizutsune.

We were also given a new trailer as well, which features Magnamalo himself in all his glory.

If you kept the demo in your Switch since last January, all you have to do is just download the update from the eShop and you’re good to go. The demo limits the numbers of quests you can do, but once the update is downloaded and installed on your Switch, the number of quests you can do will reset to the full amount of 30 to get all players ready to play the latest version of the demo.

Capcom also announced that free updates are coming to Monster Hunter Rise similar to how they handled Monster Hunter: World. The first update is scheduled to launch at the end of April 2021 and will add the monster Chameleos, unlocked HR cap plus related features, as well as several monsters that have yet to be announced.
