The flagship Elder Dragon from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne makes a triumphant return in Sunbreak via a Title Update! It is known to summon ice pillars and can freeze enemies like a popsicle so be careful!
A variant of Gore Magala that did not mature properly into a Shagaru Magala, Chaotic Gore Magala boasts a perfect mix between the juvenile aggression of Gore and the strategic execution of Shagaru. Tread carefully - this monster is not a laughing matter!
Chaotic Gore Magala: Weakness and Drops
Previously called Espinas Subspecies or Brown Espinas, Flaming Espinas makes its entrance in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak's Title Update 2. Instead of Paralysis, it inflicts Defense Down on hunters and hits much harder than the regular Espinas.
Flaming Espinas: Weakness and Armor
The shining king of the skies, Silver Rathalos, makes it return in Monster Hunter Rise in Sunbreak's Title Update 1. Its attacks are more powerful than a regular Rathalos, and it has its fearsome Incandescent state!
Silver Rathalos: Weakness and Drops
The dazzling queen of the skies, the regal Gold Rathian, has also arrived in Sunbreak in Title Update 1! It tends to use its poisonous tail more often and has several flashy attacks. Watch out for its Incandescent state!
Gold Rathian: Weakness and Drops
Lucent Nargacuga has swooped in with Sunbreak's Title Update 1! It has appeared with a new map, Forlorn Arena, in tow.
Lucent Nargacuga: Weakness and Drops
The evolved Gore Magala returns as Shagaru Magala! A far cry from its original form, Shagaru Magala is covered in glittering scales with massive rainbow-like wings.
Returning from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne to traumatize players once again, Furious Rajang is back to show us all that he was just getting started. For those who found base Rise's version of Rajang to be too easy, Furious Rajang promises not to disappoint.
Are you ready to face the thorn at your side? Espinas is joining us in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak!
One of the most iconic monsters in the entire Monster Hunter series returns! We can't wait to see how Gore Magala is like in the field in HD graphics.
Gore Magala: Basic Information
You ready with some butter, hunters? As expected because of Shogun Ceanataur's reveal, Daimyo Hermitaur showed up!
Daimyo Hermitaur: Basic Information
Teostra returned in Update 3.0 of Monster Hunter Rise (MH Rise)! Be careful of its Supernova attack or you will have an unplanned trip back to camp!
The metallic Elder Dragon Kushala Daora made a comeback in Update 3.0 of Monster Hunter Rise (MH Rise)! Brave the cold winds of this dragon and stand your ground!
Due to its sheer popularity, the announcement of Chameleos for Update 3.0 came hardly as a surprise! This slimy dragon turns invisible while simultaneously poisoning you in the process. You can't fight back if you can't see it!
Nargacuga is finally announced in the March 8th Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event along with Zinogre! Be careful for its swift attacks especially when enraged!
The electric doggo is back! We finally got a glimpse of Zinogre during the March 8th Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event where we see him fighting a Mizutsune!
Barroth is silently confirmed during the Light Bowgun showcase of Switch Skills. Be careful of its annoying mud attacks that can slow you down!
Arzuros appeared in the first official Monster Hunter Rise PV in a turf war with Tetranadon, a new confirmed monster.
The return of Royal Ludroth was confirmed in the second official Monster Hunter Rise PV. It is known for its body roll attack and its water breath attack. Hunters usually farm Dash Juices from it.
Like Royal Ludroth, the Great Wroggi was confirmed in the second official Monster Hunter Rise PV. It is known to spit poison in unison together with smaller Wroggies around it.
Rathalos was confirmed in the second official Monster Hunter Rise PV. This confirmation is not surprising considering Rathalos has appeared in all Monster Hunter games by far.
During the second official PV, Khezu's characteristic cry and lightning balls were observed until finally it was confirmed in the Monster Hunter Rise TV commercial.
It is now officially announced as a returning monster during the January 7th, Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event! Be ready for its creepy shrieks and dangerous lightning attacks in Monster Hunter Rise!
Yes, Great Baggi is finally confirmed! It was announced during the January 7th, Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event along with other returning monsters. Be wary of this beast because it induces sleep which is a nightmare when in a turf war!
Rathian appeared as the enemy in the Great Sword weapon introduction video. Like Rathalos, Rathian appeared in all Monster Hunter games so its confirmation is hardly a surprise.
Basarios equipment can be seen during the Hunting Horn weapon introduction video and finally was announced in the February 17th Nintendo Direct!
Mizutsune was confirmed at the January 7th, Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event! This monster is last seen in Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate and was well-loved because of its graceful moves and attacks.
Mizutsune can be hunted in the recently released demo so try it out!
Lagombi was announced during the January 7th, Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event! Be careful of its snowball attacks and swift slide movements that will challenge your abilities!
Volvidon is a staple of the volcanic regions in the old games and was announced along with the new Lava Caverns map in the February 17th Nintendo Direct!
We last saw Barioth with his subspecies in Monster Hunter World and now he is back for more! Avoid his ice attacks especially the mini tornado that it creates with its wings!
Tigrex is back! It was announced in the recently concluded January 7th, Monster Hunter Rise Digital Event as a returning monster. Be very wary, this monster is so powerful even its roars can hurt you!
Diablos was announced in the February 17th Nintendo Direct as a returning monster joining The Rampage!
Along with Diablos, Rajang was also announced! This ferocious beast is back to haunt all us once again!
Another returning Monster from Iceborne, Seething Bazelgeuse has return in Sunbreak's Title Update 1! Its scales now cause bigger and stronger explosions, so watch out!
Seething Bazelgeuse: Weakness and Drops
Bazelgeuse is returning in Monster Hunter Rise (MH Rise)! This flying bomber wyvern invades your hunts so bring some Dung Bombs if you don't want it invading!
Tobi Kadachi was first shown during the first PV, and finally in the Light Bowgun weapon introduction video. Take note of its characteristic lightning and claw attacks!
How to Beat Tobi-Kadachi
The Pukei-Pukei was confirmed in the Lance weapon introduction video. It is a poison monster that first appeared in Monster Hunter World, but fans love it because of its cute appearance.
In the Hammer weapon introduction video, Anjanath was confirmed to be included in the Monster Hunter Rise monster roster. It was first introduced in Monster Hunter World and is considered the first difficult monster to fight during the campaign.
Kulu-Ya-Ku was introduced in the Sword & Shield weapon introduction video. Though not a very strong monster, fans loved making layered armor from its parts in Monster Hunter World so expect the same in Monster Hunter Rise.
Jyuratodus was first confirmed in the Insect Glaive weapon introduction video. It did not have a strong presence in Monster Hunter World so we are excited for what is to come for Jyuratodus in Rise.
Recognize any of these little guys? Here's a list of all the small monsters confirmed to be returning in Monster Hunter Rise!
Laguacrus is a popular monster that first appeared in Monster Hunter 3. It was expected to be announced in Monster Hunter World, only to be forgotten.
However, with the confirmation of Royal Ludroth and Mizutsune, we can expect Lagiacrus to appear in Rise because of the similarity in the skeletal model.
Najarala was first introduced in Monster Hunter 4 and fit the newly introduced verticality feature very well. With Monster Hunter Rise boasting a new verticality feature again, we think Najarala will be confirmed for Rise!
Great Jagras appeared first in Monster Hunter World and we will not be surprised if it is announced in Monster Hunter Rise considering smaller Jagrases appeared in the Shrine Ruins!
When you go to Shrine Ruins Area 9, you will see a couple of Bullfangos ready to ram you. Their presence made us think that their pack leader, the Bulldrome is set to return!
Nergigante first appeared in Monster Hunter World and became an instant classic. It is one of those monsters with a mechanic that keeps Hunters on their toes!
Amatsumagatsuchi first appeared in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. It is a powerful Elder Dragon with the ability to manipulate storms during its fight. We honestly want Amatsu because of the sheer beauty of the whole fight as well as the BGM.
