Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak - A New Frontier 

Not to mention this is the first time since 4U, we've gotten rare species that weren't the Metal Raths in mainline games.

@@lynxfresh5214 If this means we get molten tigrex, this might top 4U as my favorite monster hunter.

Fax, now all I need is zamtrios since he should've been in base rise and brachy cause he's my favorite monster and rise will be the best monster Hunter game to date.

Gore is one of my favorite Monsters. I was able to get the preorder that had his statue for 4. I don't regret having to increase the price because that was all they had left in stock. (Guy never showed to pick up his copy within the week so he was refunded and I got it instead.) I do miss Brachydios not being in at the first go but he could be added in the title updates.

@@ArrikKitsune yeah even tho I adore brachy in every way I still think Gore is the most aesthetically pleasing monster to look at. He looks so epic with no eyes and the long flowy cape like wings and wing arms.

Forgetting that lavasioth exists, are we? Jokes aside I’m happy to see Espinas and you are right.

I’m crossing my fingers for shantien, crimson flame fatalis, harudomerugu (especially his glorious theme) , and or duremudira make an appearance

Honestly at this point I just figured that they were going to pretend that Frontier never happened, but my god I hope this opens up the door to more Frontier content. Imagine a day where the tonfas make it into a mainline game

@@titanjakob1056 Crimson Fatalis was already in MH4U, but I’m also hoping for his return again 🥳🥳🥳

@@isaiahfreecos2075 In the future on consoles I hope

It really was, this is shaping up to be a really outstanding expansion.

Daimyo Hermitaur at 0:46 did you say, *MONEY?*

A lot of Monster Hunter Tri fans would disagree with that statement.

ngl world by itself was cool but iceborne was what really made it god tier and this one is looking to be great aswell

@@wintersong2266 im not played Tri or 3U but why the expansion didnt make it better? I mean they have Dire, Brachy, and More rare species

@@Zacharie27 I haven't played Tri personally but here is a few common complaints I have seen from players who did. The pacing of the game is way too rushed. The original Tri had one of the fewest number of Monsters out of any games but they paced each fights very well and made each monsters really interesting and memorable. In comparison with the expansion they bombarded you with monsters and make you rush throught them one after the other. Secondly the ambience in Tri was a lot better. A lot of this is probably due to the fact that Tri was originally a console game. And 3U is a 3DS game, there is a Wii U version but it's a port of the 3DS version. One big example is that caves in Tri were really dark and you needed to bring torches with you which bought a spooky atmosphere to fights that happened in caves. In 3U they ruined this by making caves a lot brighter and making the torche item completely useless. They replaced Loc Lac with a new hub. Loc Lac City is seen by many fans as the best Hunter's Hub in the series. Unfortunately you needed to be online to access the city and since the Wii online was shut down a long time ago and that as I said the city isn't in 3U, the entire city is basically lost to time.

Generations, World and Tri are pretty good as base games. Since they add something new like underwater combat, hunter arts and styles along with deviants and hypers, semi open world experience with weapons and new move sets along with monster fights that in the past were annoying or boring have been improved.

Yeah, that effect really sold his bio-luminescence, even in broad daylight.

same with gores wings!

And if he looks cool already when boltreaver gets announced alongside Soulseer is going to be crazy, look the silhouette of the second free updates, the flying wyvern isn't that obvious but the second one is clearly mizutsune, and it says "powered up monsters"

it looks so pretty i think they tried to make it in gu too but doesnt have the same tech they have now

​@@pabloprieto3858 We already effectively have soulseer in the form of Apex Mizu

They actually did it and do you know what this means??? It also means Shaguru Magala would probably make an appearance as well

Shaguras remixed theme will be fire

I LOVE 2 SEE THAT SHAGARU COMING 2

Now we just have to imagine the return of Dalamadur or Gogmazios in our wildest dreams

@@emblemblade9245 omg you're right, at least one of them pls capcom

I'm going to have a hard time deciding which of their armour sets to wear

Why did everyone forget about my boy , Narjala

I think the director of Sunbreak worked on 4U. That's why the seemingly huge difficulty spike and 2 4U monsters in a row. 4U is brutal, and with them introducing a Frontier monster, of all thing, meaning they are NOT messing around now. (Does that mean Frontier is Canon now?)

@MauhnsterMash Actually yes it kind of is. Both of the originally Frontier exclusive monsters in P2ndG aren't actually Frontier exclusive, they were designed by both the Frontier and main/portable team and thus, co-owned by both. Espinas on the other hand, wasn't. So the fact that they brought it over to the main line means that the pandora box has been opened.

and with gore that also means the likelihood of shagaru magala showing up as well, im all kinds of hyped, both my bonk sticks and GS's are primed and ready to go for this

Brothers from Val Habar, let us rejoice!

same, some of my best memories with one of my best friends is going through 4U together

I fuckin screamed

Same here! I thought it was gonna be a Goss Harag subspecies at first, but I started to sob the second I saw the frenzy dust. I'm so happy to see Gore Magala in such a beautiful game!

I thought they were gonna bring Guanzorumu Were lucent was it looked like it fortress

me too even if people kept spamming to skip or the infamous zzzźzzzzźzzzźzźz

@@EnchantedSmellyWolf Chat on livestream events are some of the most toxic places imaginable 😂

@@1upjacob based

@Creeper King if guanzorumu is in rise its gonna be the best game in the series

Right? Goss is a big ass heavy hitter, and Gore threw him around like a Jaggi lol.

Best part about it is that’s only its first form!

@@gioanysgonzalez3396 oh that’s right! If a gore is running around, then the heaven’s wheel is sure to make an appearance.

@@gioanysgonzalez3396 _insert "Not even my final form" meme here_

@@alonesometravler9343 Fitting how the black eclipse follows the Sunbreak.

I did too, I saw the frenzy shadow and couldn’t contain myself! My boy is back! I swear if Shagaru is here as well I’ll be so freaking happy.

Me too

I had a heart attack when I saw the purple mist and I was like “no they’re trolling, they’re not being it back and then it came out and I’m literally jump for joy!

Indeed

YOOOO SAMEE

Rip old jungle theme, you will be missed

@@Vextalefromhell old jungle is gen 1, I would say it's atleast better rather than having it's theme remade with no callbacks to the original(looking at you sandy plains)

I thought they were gonna bring Guanzorumu This looks like the cloud viewing fortress 2:16

I CRIED I CREAMED IM HAPPY!

@@TheBeatofheartss wait ... what?

Mizar’s Asterism was busted (L. Narg SwAxe). Power phial with natural purple and positive affinity. If you could get a good charm for free element you could even get it to have poison (also very strong in 3u)

​@@lordoffungi5387 Yeah that was my go-to SwAxe. Across the board the weapons had good raw, high affinity, and natural purple sharpness. The LS had 50% iirc, which is crazy for a weapon that's already strong.

unfortunately few people used anything other than brachy weapons in 3U

@@smashmallow1012 Yeah slime was pretty busted. 4 Brachy DBs is a festival of explosions.

@@smashmallow1012 🤫🤫

Which part is insane, Espinas, Gore, or all of it?

All of et

I'm refreshing on your youtube channel till your new video comes out about this. You totally called Espinas coming to Sunbreak

Huge respect for predicting Espinas so early on, I wasn't a believer until the leaks came through

@@mugwort1 I appreciate that!

Yeah. We won't be feeling that way when we fight him, though lol. His invisibility will be frustrating, but fun to fight against. Wonder what skills his armor will give...

@@Zac_Frost when they team him up with Chameleos... we're all screwed

All we need now is Molten Tigrex.

@@Zac_Frost i'm already getting PTSD

I thought they were gonna bring Guanzorumu This looks like the cloud viewing fortress 2:16

Second title update looks to be the white Epsinas species. Just a guess from the shadow and the fact we're getting the Tower back.

hypno reappeared in 4th/5th? in which game?

@@jamieburn4577 I thought Orange Espinas. Cause they're in the Tower Top. Whereas White Espinas are in The Top of The Great Forest.

@@ezekielbulloch4649 Could be either or both. All logic has disappeared and I'm here for it

I don't have a ton of knowledge on the rares aside from the metal raths,molten tigrex, and Lucent nargacuga Can someone please explain the bronze and plat rares? Ps I've only played world/iceborne, rise, and am just recently getting into high rank in GU Edit: and both stories games if they matter fo anyone

Still doesn't make up for all of the terrible things Rise has, making it the worst, less appealing game in the series. I have no hype for the expansion, the base game is my least played MH game, screw the incompetent portable team

@@wallacesousuke1433 cry harder.

@@lubbo5261 well, you're the only one here who looks like someone on the verge of crying like a lil girl :v

@@wallacesousuke1433 You see that someone was late when neurons were being distributed, but what you can expect from a lol player

You said it brother

I thought my body was ready, I couldn’t have been farther from the truth 😳

Shantien...best fight, best monster.

At this point with Rise they gonna catch up with Frontier's flashiness. But will we get back Magnet Spike and Dual Tonfas?

Do y'all even consider that not everyone wants to put up with 9 statuses on every monster's every attack, evade window being mandatory to play the game at it's most basic level, and full zone instakills on every monster?

Well in the title update there’s special monsters and that term was only used in explore so who knows we might get some.

@@DumDum5551 they can adapt the monsters into main series gameplay. And not every frontier monster is like that. Not every Frontier Mon is like Disufiroa and even that one is on par with Alatreon and such who in Iceborne had a zone wide instakill move as well

One of the Monsters teased for the content updates looks like White Espinas.

probably white/brown espinas because they said they'll add subspecies and rare species and it's unlikely that they'll leave him without a subspecie of himself after 14 years of not appearing

I was like the same, said "i would love gore, but with all the facts of malzeno and gore, he would not fit in it and would overshadow malzeno.. only maybe as future update.." and now this, you cant be more happy with being wrong

@@tikurai4970 did you just say he wouldn't fit in to convince yourself then? Lol

Definitely

imagine what the final boss could be!!!!

@@samthomas7253 Dalamadur maybe? Or White Fatalis?

@@VEKTOR-qi9tm I doubt dalamadur, maybe one of the near end game bois are Shagaru Magala and something else. White fatalis might be the final title update boss

@@diothevampire3250 ye probably something like that, im just excited to see the final final boss, i.e. sunbreaks' Narwa, Shara Ishvalda, Ahtal-Ka, since the flagship isnt the final boss.

Not only satisfying us, but managed to completely surprise us by giving us a frontier monster to hunt as well

Idk, people still asking for lagiacrus.

@@htfs493 Because he's a great and beloved flagship monster (In fact, he's even my favorite and very reason of why my pfp is his Abyssal variant)that deserves to return. The problem is that he was made around the mechanics of Tri, so to actually get to fight him as we should the water combat (renewed of course) would have to come back as well. This would also allow to monsters like Gobul, Plesioth (with possibly its signature shoulder tackle as a strong chargable move as a gag like they've done in WoR) and Miralis to return, in addition to let monsters introduced after Tri that could fit that environment to also experience it for the first time. Monsters like Zamtrios or Somnacanth, for example. If we had to bring him back without it, it would feel like it did in Gen, which didn't, in fact, felt complete. We just need to wait at least one more game and they'll surely bring the water combat back and Lagiacrus&Co. with it.

No one cares u sweaties.

@@tomatogenesis GenU Lagi was great, but he was closer to Ivory Lagia than the regular one.

The farming for the palium...again.

Aren't we forgetting about Chaotic Gore?

@@gabrielmorga2326 Me breaking only breaking one horn before killing it

@@uhoh7545 i feel that pain

thumbs up for molten tigrex

I think Laviente is a bit much for the Switch. Considering you need 10 Hunters or more to slay an entire Continent.

@@morphayangze2737 True but still, Disufiroa and Shantien are highly possible

"Who are you Monsters?!"- MHW Newbie Patrick Star

who are the most iconic monsters from frontier?

@@diothevampire3250 With the old Jungle area coming back and a...HOLE TO THE UNDERGROUND?! CARAPACEONS ARE COMING BACK AS WELL! Taikun Zamuza might make a return here, folks!

I wouldn't say no to either Legiacrus, Glavenius, Duramboros, Garuga or Congolala. All of them appear in the Jungle in GU.

Rest of the map im either way about it, but the smol island at the back will always be my favorite area to fight monsters in :3

I hope that they reveal gammoth and glavenius in game. The fated four will reunited

It be weird seeing nerscylla without gypceroes considering it uses the skins of gypceroes as a protective cloak, maybe the subspecies of nerscylla since that uses khezu skin as a cloak

@@jamiehughes5573 shrouded nerscylla also looks way better than the normal counterpart

It would be fine if we have the regular without Gypceros, since we have had Daimyo for 2 games already without Monoblos.

Its always been the sane tho, there was no different direction. And the best title was the previous title.

@@celphalonred1999 Sorry, but I disagree with both of those statements, also you're crazy if you can't notice the obvious shift in design choices from the 4th gen to the 5th

I know the story wasn't finished, but are you sure Valstrax was intended for base game? But at least it's free content.

@@handtomouth4690 Only Capcom can answer that but it's at least what almost everyone in the community thinks because 1.0 was extremely incomplete

I think it was intended to have the Elders in base game but Valstrax and Allmother plus the Apexes apart from the 3 already in base were supposed to be updates. I base this on the official Soundtrack where the themes for Cham, Kush, Teo and Bazel are on the base album while Allmother, CG Val and the Infernal Springs themes came with an extra mini album.

Yup base rise had the most lacking dlc monster because basically some of them should been already from the start of the game (atleast from what i think), but knowing they just cut it means that Sunbreak gonna get 120% love on the free title update so we can expect a lot of dlc monsters (more than Iceborne). I expect we get 6-10 dlc monsters in 2022

@@MrCrypto137 so because it was incomplete people think all the updates were intended for base game and not only some of them? There's no inbetween? That would mean Rise would have had no free updates after release, after doing so for World and Iceborne. Is that really the more reasonable belief? Or are you suggesting Rise would have had more if it didn't "waste time" adding back in stuff that was "supposed" to be in base game, and therefore taking up free update slots for other things. If so, that would be some extreme speculation on CAPCOM's intentions. It's reasonable to be upset, but don't let it cloud your judgment and reasoning.

I sorta feel like if any game was going to add him, it would be rise. Since the game has the Apex system it would make s new if Gore's frenzied state is an excuse to make all MR apex fights be "frenzied" monsters instead.

What monster is that?

@@tracymoore173 Espinas, the flagship monster from Monster Hunter Frontier

And they are most importantly doing away with the most annoying feature, RAMPAGES

@@bicycle_1358 I was actually kind of hoping that they would expand on it and make it much more interesting, or basically improve on it, especially with the monsters we have in the expansion, now, it would have been so much more interesting now, plus it feels off for the rampage to be exclusive to just base rise(not to mention the apexes), to me it's like if monster hunter tri had the underwater combat, but the g rank expansion completely disregarded it

@@magnumvolpis2522 I don't think they would, because why would rampages exist when narwa and ibushi are gone?

@@zmg3664 Im sure they would have been able to find another way in the lorefor rampages to happen in the expension, wether it would have been from the new final boss, or malzeno, the only reason they aren't doing it here was because people didn't like the rampage

@@magnumvolpis2522 Luckily 3U G rank has some great underwater fights, like Goldbeard Ceadeus, Abyssal Lagia or Dire Miralis.

Don't forget hypnocotrice

Maybe we can trade the lava catfish out ? No seriously that stupid thing can go back to frontier and let us have the actually good frontier monters

@@CreamIc7 EVERYONE forgets that thing, let's be honest lmao.

@@ubermaster1 he was cool

@@ubermaster1 Including the devs, seeing as how the last time it was referenced was when one of its weapons was given to Qurupeco in 4

Same here. I'll admit, I started falling out of Monster Hunter, I wasn't a fan of the direction the series was taking, but this blew me away. It feels like Monster Hunter got it's soul back. I think Sunbreak might end up being my favorite game in the series, and that's saying something

@@anonymousalien7417 same dude.

World 2? It’s MH6 brother

I might be wrong, but the demo might be available in 48 minutes since that’s the time when the server resets ;)

@@DenylR Nah sorry man they said it will be available tomorrow at 7pm PST/10pm EST

I thought they were gonna bring Guanzorumu Were lucent was it looked like it fortress

@@peeb3425 you’re right!

Who cares about the twins, I’m all about the two strong elderly men

Dalamadur is to iconic. Like miralis/ceadeus for 3u I think 4u will keep gogma and dala. Gore was already in mhgu so it was somehow clear that he would return someday. Espinas though is another story

But who knows maybe one day we will get monster hunter online 2 with all the monsters this Franchise has to offer

@@gamelord2110 i mean dire miralis and ceadeus were underwater fights so they are trapped in 3 and 3u until water combat comes back, if it comes back

And it's all gonna be laid to waste since Rise is objectively the worst entry in the series, fundamentally garbage

@@wallacesousuke1433 Objectively the worse? In a series that used to be known for it absolutely terrible jank and horrible hitboxes? Rise might have some issues with it's difficulty being a bit too easy. But at least it's a functional game which is more than I can say about the earlier entries in the series.

Give me Shantien please!

isn't Lavasioth from Frontier?

@@bloodknyte Yes. But Lavasioth and Hypnocatrice being in Freedom Unite is why we never got any Frontier monsters ever again, until now.

And lavasioth is a freaking annoyance

The espinas leak kind off adds to the experience.

No.

Yes

...Pretty sure they've only shown Velocipreys though?

@@tommasorinaldi9196 sorry, I mix them up sometimes.

It seems that magma almudron will be similar to agnaktor, so I don't think he will make it, but for zamtrios it's still possible

@@jiobranjo people thought the same for Gore Magala with Malzeno, but here we are.

Yeah, you're right about that one

Your forgetting V E L O C I D R O M E

@@riverguavs6139 what exactly would velocidrome really add? He's too low tier and simple to add in a g-rank expansion

or it could be the zenith monsters as well, perhaps they're adding new zeniths (though i doubt it)

Zenith won't get added I'm 100% sure. The shadows looks like mizutsune and espinas so it's probably a mizu rare species and the espinas rare species which was in frontier

The first one probably a swamp map night from older game

Fourth, as cool as that could be (in a similar odd vein of ice to desert, like Sand Barioth, a subspecies I personally want to see return), isn't Goss normally that color? The lighting does make him seem a bit more yellow at first, but when it pans out he's normal- and look at the environment for that matter

WELCOME ABOARD TO A TRUE MH EXPERIENCE

Welcome to the Fifth Fleet, hunter. I can only imagine how much more you'll love these monsters once you actually meet them

@@alexanderthegreat6682 Espinas is a first for a lot of veterans in the west too which makes sunbreak incredible. He was originally in the japan only MMO. Having him in a main game is huge.

@@BlaizeTheDragon I know, right? And he fits perfectly in the main series too, which is something that can't really be said for most Frontier monsters

@@alexanderthegreat6682 I think every frontier monster is great for the mainline games. You just need to work around them like replace some magnetspike/guts-counter-aoes with new moves and create new unique areas for like duremudira or even disufiroa

CB may not be busted on Rise but it sure is stylish

@@dan_da5213 Kind of looks like a safety option to let you disengage the monster quickly since it happens relatively fast and puts some distance between you and the monster. If so you could probably choose between a downward slam or that depending on the situation.

No, leave that trash in Frontier

@@wallacesousuke1433 lol triggered much xD The only trash here is your opinion. Frontier monsters are awesome and more then welcome to be in the main series, as the vast majority of people would agree.

@@joseluissilva6027 lmao vast majority, keep dreaming, only a handful of weirdos like that trash, the striking majority of the 20mi World players would hate such generic, lame designed monsters making into it, it'd degrade the quality of the game. There's only a handful of decently design Frontier monsters, the bulk of the monster's roster can stay there for good (and dont even dare bringing the stupid tonfa and magnetic spike nonsense, that shit belongs in Dauntless and Vindictus)

@@wallacesousuke1433 You know i can see you trying to cope right? xD, sorry bro numbers and reactions, from this trailer alone mind you, dont lie, people/fans are loving this. Face it only weirdos like you and dumbass haters are saying those types of things the rest is just excitement and curiosity all around. Plus wtf are you smoking, or are you actually trolling, a vast majority of Frontier designs are just as, if not in some cases, more creative and unique then mainline, specially base World imo (heck that was one of the biggest critiques from fans, the lack in monster diversity), and I mean...Frontier has a leech Leviathan, poisoning brute, shape-shifting pseudo wyvern, moth bird wyvern, mist exploding wyvern, CRYSTAL SCORPION, etc.... Meanwhile in base World we have...big lizard that eats things,,...gendrome but black and a lizard, ahh Lavasioth but wors..I mean muddy, ahh Pink trex that spits fire... You see what I mean. Like, im not saying those monsters are bad, and again thats only really base World, Iceborne fortunately didn't have much of that problem, but still comparatively Frontier has more creative/unique monsters (dah of course it has. It as been alive for a whole decade). Honestly, all serious now, unless your actually a troll or just a hater for whatever reason, I suggest you look up Frontier or just see the videos about it from RageGaming and/ or superRad and actually see what it is all about instead of just doing the, at this point, stereotypical mistake of judging a book by its cover. Because if you did that, then all I needed to do is say things like "oh look at this ridiculous fight with Alatreon its such bs. Oh what is this an alien dragon(Xeno)? Wth is this? Alien??? What? A Dragon that looks like a root and looks at you directly through the camera(Shara) wtf is this Final Fantasy??? What is this spike filled mess (Nerg) Ewww terrible. ....thats just a Dragon, God of all monsters what?(Fatalis) How is that realistic? What a boring as hell design eww". I can equally say things like that and be right by your logic. So yea.

@@wallacesousuke1433 also "degrade the quality of the game" oh yes because introducing something like a scorpion, or an actual scary and cool looking leech Leviathan or heck even just a simple brute wyvern is gonna, somehow..."degrade the quality of the game" ...ok of you think so...then..ok, if it makes sense in your fantasy sure. Just gonna say that stuff like Shara and Ibushi/Narwa completely shit on the "craziness" of Frontier monsters, specially there designs. Thou if you say that unironically, and basically think that the main series team cant/ aren't good enough to translate these monsters and features into the main series..then all I have to say is that you really must not like the main series team then do you? If you think they are not good enough to do it then...oof, those are kinda low standards might i say.
