Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak launches in June

Last year, shortly after the successful launch of Monster Hunter Rise on the Nintendo Switch, Capcom announced that it would be releasing a ‘massive expansion' for the game in Summer 2022. Today, more information was finally revealed, with the Sunbreak expansion set to release for Switch and PC on the 30th of June.

Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak will release simultaneously on Switch and PC on the 30th of June. During a stream, we also got a new look at the upcoming expansion and the new monsters that will be introduced:

Monster Hunter Rise first released in March 2021 for the Nintendo Switch, but the PC version arrived in January 2022 with some key upgrades to graphics and performance.

The Sunbreak expansion will see four new monsters added to the game, including the Garangolm, Lunagaron, Astalos and the Blood Orange Bishaten. The expansion will be accompanied by a new set of amiibo for the Switch version.

KitGuru Says: The stream didn't reveal quite as much as we were hoping for, but Sunbreak is shaping up to be a good expansion. Have any of you picked of Monster Hunter Rise since the PC launch? Will you be returning for the expansion?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
