Last Friday Monster Hunter Rise went on sale on Nintendo Switch, which is noted to be one of the most anticipated releases on the Nintendo console, because Capcom has announced that the new installment of the saga has sold four million units in only this first weekend that it has been in stores.
These new figures are in addition to those provided by Capcom related to the entire franchise, on which it has indicated that since it began in 2004 until December 31, 2020, it had reached 66 million units sold worldwide , so the amount continues to increase by leaps and bounds.
Monster Hunter Rise is a completely new chapter in the series that features monsters and places never seen before. To this we must also add new mechanics such as chordoptera , insects that serve to move or swing through the air and that in turn allow climbing walls, which offers a huge exploration in all directions.
On the other hand, we must not forget that the Nintendo Switch exclusive with Monster Hunter Rise is only temporary and its PC version is expected to see the light of day in 2022 . Before that, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin will arrive on July 9, which in this case will be available at the same time for the Nintendo console and for PC.
