During the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak digital event, Capcom announced that Primordial Malzeno would be making its way to the game. This deadly variant of the Sunbreak’s flagship Elder Dragon has been infected with the Qurio, which has given it access to some fearsome new moves.

Hunters will finally get to uncover the mysteries surrounding Malzeno and the Kingdom, but you’ll need to be prepared for a particularly tricky fight. The Primordial Malzeno quest is only available to those who have reached MR 10 or higher, so be sure to grind those levels in order to face Sunbreak’s final challenge.

Primordial Malzeno armor and weapons can also be forged with the monster’s materials, while further event quests will also be featured until July 27, 2023.
