Monster Hunter Rise - Charge Blade and Hunting Horn trailers published with Weapon and Partner quiz
Capcom has published Monster Hunter Rise weapon gameplay trailers for the final two weapon types: Charge Blade and Hunting Horn. With these, all 14 weapon types have received their own trailers.
Previously, Capcom published trailers for the Dual Blades, Bow, Lance, Long Sword, Light & Heavy Bowguns, Hammer, Sword & Shield, Gunlance, Insect Glaive, Switch Axe, and Great Sword. Every weapon in Monster Hunter Rise receives new Silkbind attacks that utilize the new Wirebug insect.
Find the weapon trailers right below. Monster Hunter Rise will be released for Nintendo Switch simultaneously worldwide on March 26.
Charge Blade
Dynamic, crushing potential. The Charge Blade weaves together an empowered sword and stout shield to make up a mighty axe. Charge it up in sword mode, then unleash devastating attacks in axe mode. "Counter Peak Performance" is a silkbind attack that readies your shield for incoming attacks; getting hit fills your phials to maximum, priming you for the ultimate counter attack.
Hunting Horn
Rhythmic, heart-pounding hits. The Hunting Horn smashes through the charts with powerful moves that stun monsters and buff your hunting party! "Earthshaker" is a head-pounding beat silkbind attack that drives an Ironsilk-bound blade into the target like a stake. Sonic vibrations explode inside the target causing big damage!
With all 14 weapon trailers now accounted for, Capcom also published a Japanese questionnaire webpage that determines the best weapon and Palico/Palamute composition for you. We have translated the questions and answers, as well as the quiz progression routes, as follows:
