Two new Monster Hunter Rise trailers have been released online, focusing on two different weapon types.
The new trailers, which can be watched below, focus on the Dual Blades and Bow weapons, highlighting their features and special attacks.
Lithe, agile and relentless. The Dual Blades deliver an onslaught of slices in rapid succession. "Piercing Bind" is a silkbind attack that pierces targets with a detonating kunai. Landing further hits where the kunai is lodged racks up extra damage that scales with each hit.
Swift, elegant and precise. The Bow combines high mobility and rapid attacks to rain down a constant stream of arrows onto monsters."Herculean Draw" is a silkbind attack that surges you forward in a designated direction and uses Ironsilk to empower your attacks.
Monster Hunter Rise launches in a few months, but players won't have to wait much longer to try out the game, as a playable demo will be released sometime in January. The demo, available for a limited time online, will feature new monsters like Somnacanth and Bishaten.
