Monster Hunter is on its way to becoming one of the biggest franchises in video games. The series has always been hugely popular in Japan, but the release of Monster Hunter World bought it swathes of fans based in the west. The title has gone on to become Capcom’s top-selling game of all time and has received tons of updates both big and small. Following World, Capcom announced Monster Hunter Rise for the Nintendo Switch (and later PC) and it looks as though it’s going to be another fantastic game. Ahead of that, Capcom is holding a Monster Hunter Digital Event, focused on both the series, then specifically Monster Hunter Rise. Here are all the details you need to know.
