The next update for Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak has been revealed and coming next week
Overnight Capcom hosted another update presentation for Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak, which took a look into Update 3, the next free content update to the game.
The update itself will arrive on November 24th, but as that is for Europe, don’t expect it until later in the day for us. As for what is included within, well this update features three new monsters; more options for customising the appearance and performance of weapons and armour; plus changes for Anomaly Investigations, Anomaly Quests, and the Follower system.
The three new monsters that players will encounter as they explore around Elgado Outpost are Chaotic Gore Magala, Risen Teostra, and Risen Kushala Daora, you can see them below.
As always with each monster comes new information, here is what Capcom have released on the three new beasties:
Chaotic Gore Magala
Gore Magala repeatedly shed their skin until they eventually mature into Shagaru Magala, however sometimes a defect can occur during the molting process. This deformation traps the Gore Magala halfway between its adolescent and mature state, creating the Chaotic Gore Magala variant. Their dual nature allows these incredibly powerful creatures to use the attacks of both Gore and Shagaru Magala, however their stunted growth also causes them intense agony. Hunters above MR10 able to quell the chaos will be rewarded with materials for new weapons and armor boasting unique skills.
Risen Teostra and Kushala Daora
Despite the utmost efforts of both Kamura and the Kingdom, the affliction continues to claim new hosts. Sightings of Risen Teostra and Kushala Daora require an immediate response from the coalition’s most skilled hunters. While both monsters are already seen as forces of nature, their Risen forms have the capacity for even more widespread destruction. Beware their angered state, as there is no telling what devastating attacks they will unleash. Hunters must first achieve the rank of MR120 prior to facing off against Risen Kushala Daora and MR140 for Risen Teostra, but the reward for braving the elements is access to materials capable of crafting weapons and armor with new skills.
Of course, part of the new update is that of new armour and weapons to make use of. In addition to the ones included for free, there will also be some paid DLC for the game, which includes gestures, stickers, music, player voices, and the “Hinoa” layered armor set.
New Event Quests will continue to reward players with new equipment, stickers, poses, and other fun items, in addition to the new “Kagami” character voice being released as a Free DLC. This energetic Dual Blades user leads the Royal Secret Service in the Kingdom, and is a close friend to Master Utsushi.
Hunters looking for even more ways to sharpen their skills will be able to tackle the new A7★ Anomaly Quests, featuring Flaming Espinas, Scorned Magnamalo, and Seething Bazelgeuse. Additionally, the Anomaly Investigation system will raise the level cap to 200, with the added ability to lower the level of individual quests hunters already possess. Materials from Anomaly Investigations can also be used for new augment categories for both weapons and armor. With the ability to pick from “Defense” or “Skills” for armour augments, there are even more opportunities for hunters to build their ideal armour set.
This is just some of the content coming to the game, Update 1 and 2 have delivered plenty and Update 3 will. But Capcom are not done yet, as Update 4 will arrive sometime in the Summer months of next year, likely mid to late February. Then Update 5 will arrive sometime in the Autumn months, beyond that though, there is no word.
