Monster Hunter Rise is a huge hit for the Switch, but as the series has been around for so long, it can be a little intimidating for new players. Well, now’s a good time to give it a go, if you’ve been on the fence about picking it up, as Nintendo Switch Online subscribers can try the game for free from March 11-17.
Even though there’s a demo, some of the mechanics are a bit confusing, especially if you’ve never played a game in the series before. A full free week, however, is more than enough time to get your head around the game. As a huge fan of the series, I’ll jump back in to lend a hand to anyone giving the Monster Hunter free trial a go.
If you’re going to try it, we can give you a hand understanding everything. Whether you’re struggling to understand the new Monster Hunter Rise wirebugs, or just want a guide to Monster Hunter Rise weapons, we have a lot of info. For those of you who need even more convincing, check out our Monster Hunter Rise review to see what we think. (Spoiler: we think it’s exceptional).
