Monster Hunter Rise’s release on Switch and PC has proven incredibly popular, but for PlayStation and Xbox fans, many will be wondering whether Capcom’s beast-slaying title will be launching on these platforms.

PlayStation and Xbox players have still yet to dive into Monster Hunter Rise and its Sunbreak expansion. This is obviously a shame for Hunters who want to take down the game’s new creatures and utilize the exciting Wirebug and Wyvern Riding mechanics.

With all that being said, will Monster Hunter Rise be released on PlayStation and Xbox in the future? Well, our handy hub has everything you need to know about whether Monster Hunter Rise will be making its way to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.

Monster Hunter Rise’s Sunbreak expansion added even more content to the game.

The game is also reportedly coming to Xbox Game Pass, which is obviously incredibly exciting for Hunters who have yet to play the Switch and PC versions of the game. The fact that Rise was originally ported to PC over from the Switch makes this a good possibility.

And now thanks to this new announcement trailer, we can confirm that Monster Hunter Rise will be coming to Xbox Game Pass. Xbox fans, you’re in for an extra special treat. Not only will Monster Hunter Rise be coming to Game Pass, it will also be available to download day one of release.

Whether the devs release an Ultimate edition that includes both Rise and Sunbreak remains to be seen, but we’ll update this section as soon as we hear more details.
