| Official Description | |||
| The creepy Flying Wyvern returns to once again strike fear into the hearts of many a hunter. Its long, elastic neck stretching out while it clings to a wall or the ceiling is a sight straight out of a nightmare. Make sure you do not get overwhelmed by its horrific appearance. | |||

The Khezu was revealed in a TV Commercial for Monster Hunter Rise. Even in the 2nd trailer, a cry that's highly similar to the Khezu can be heard.

The Khezu is known to live in Icy regions. Since a Khezu will be appearing in MH Rise, expect the game to have an icy region that houses these nasty monsters. And make sure to have some hot drinks ready!
Fire is Khezu's weakness so make sure to bring Fire Elemental weapons if your weapon is focused on dealing elemental damage. The Khezu can also latch to its surroundings so weakening its foot can cause it to fall.
Khezu is a slow monster but it's capable of unleashing strong lightning attacks. Its attack range is massive so it's best to wear gear with high lightning resistance to survive its attacks.
This might seem like mediocre info but is in fact, a very important one. With the Khezu lacking sight, it is immune to flash pods! It will also not trigger a combat mode which makes superman diving impossible.
Khezu's spooky and eerie roar is back in Monster Hunter Rise. This one is no joke though as hunters take longer to recover from it so that leaves hunters open for attacks.
This monster has one of the most popular background music: having none at all. This has been a meme for a long time now, specifically about how 'Khezu has the best BGM'.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Neck Swing Attack | Elongated neck attack that has a long range |
| Electric Breath Attack | Electric attack from the mouth that rushes on the ground Causes paralysis to hunters |
| Discharge Attack | An area-of-effect charged electric attack |
| Ceiling Latch | Khezu will jump up and latch on the ceiling |
| Body Slam Attack | Jumps up and slams its whole body to the ground |
The Khezu can unleash a long-ranged swing attack. Ranged users need to be careful with this attack as its damage is high and the range can be surprising.
The Khezu uses a slow electric breath in a 180-degree arc. It's extremely slow so it'll be fairly easy to dodge but make sure to bring lightning-resistant gear to be safe.
The Khezu can cover itself in lightning which will shock all enemies close to the Khezu. This is a nightmare for melee users but is a great vulnerability against ranged weapons.
The Khezu can latch on the Ceiling to perform an evasive maneuver. It then shoots electric balls, it is easy to dodge but is a hassle since the Khezu will be out of reach. Aim to weaken its leg to make it fall when using this move!
Khezu will spread its arms, jump up and slam its whole body to the ground with full force! This one is usually followed up by a huge opening but sometimes Khezu will chain this attack with an electric discharge attack so observe and act accordingly!

I saw that Magnamalo has two names: some shoos are selling Magnamalo Amiibo and some shops and selling Magbanaki Amiibo but they’re both the same monster. Why is that?
I hope they have different accessories for the Palamute like how the Palico can use Palico Gadgets! Maybe fang accessories which could inflict Poison, etc.?
