Offering €40 on PlayStation and Xbox, Monster Hunter Rise will also be one of the first major Game Pass takeovers in 2023. This is for subscribers on Xbox consoles as well as on PC thanks to the Windows 10 port that will be available at the same time. . On PS5 and Xbox Series X, Monster Huner Rise will run at 4K and 60fps (or 1080p and 120fps for compatible displays), offering 3D audio and adaptive trigger support in the case of a DualSense controller.
Sunbreak will be available later separately
Note that Capcom’s press release only mentions a digital release, so we shouldn’t be able to find a PlayStation/Xbox version in stores. In addition, it will be necessary to wait until spring 2023 before the Sunbreak expansion can be purchased separately. Also, those who started the game on Switch or Steam shouldn’t expect to be able to continue their hunt on another platform, as the cross-play and cross-progress features are missing from subscribers. It is still possible to play online between players of the same platform family (eg PS5 and PS4) to discover the novelties of this opus, in particular the Philopteres system or the ability to ride mounts, as many ways to breathe new life into exploration.
The release of Monster Hunter Rise on these new platforms is also fueling tensions in the race for the best-selling game in Capcom’s history, the record currently held by Monster Hunter World with 18.50 million copies distributed worldwide, but Monster Hunter Rise should be able to compete even more seriously, which already displays 11.20 million units since its debut in March 2021.
