Our Katharine’sMonster Hunter Rise PC reviewthought it “a more than worthy successor” to the previous game, 2018’sMonster Hunter: World.
“There’s a generous and playful sense of freedom here that keeps combat and exploration feeling fresh, and the momentum of its hunting-led missions means you’re rarely spinning your wheels as you seek out that last elusive armour part,” she said. “It’s kept me playing much longer than I ever did with World, and I can’t wait to see how it develops with its imminent Sunbreak expansion later this summer.”
Sounds good if you can play it, but not everyone can. BothSteam player reviewsandthe official troubleshooting threadhave many complaints about an issue stopping some players from starting the game. Apparently it requires newcomers to create a new save file to store their game but then fails to do that, leaving them at the point of needing to create a save which the game is unable to actually create. Hopefully Capcom get folks on that sharpish.
I suppose scattershot technical issues are less of a problem since Steam improved refund policies years back but even if you got your money back, it would still suck find you can’t play a game you wanted enough to buy.
Monster Hunter Rise is out nowon Steamfor £50/€60/$60. Its demo is still up on Steam too.
