Monster Hunter Rise is a game that keeps giving, with Capcom still rolling out regular free updates in the runup to the Summer's major expansion, Sunbreak. Updates on both fronts have arrived over the past 24 hours, including some particularly snazzy armor sets.
First up, on 21st January we'll get the Universal Studios Japan collab in Rise; the trailer is at the top of the page. It features a couple of fun event quests, with the rewards in armor sets for your hunter and buddies being rather eye catching.
In addition the director of the Sunbreak expansion (out this Summer) has started to share key phrases as teasers / clues about its content. The first of these is below.
Some fans are taking that phrase as pointing to potential 'Royal' creatures, whether thematically or in a similar manner to the extremely tough monsters that you come across in the wild in Monster Hunter Stories 2. Either way, no doubt there'll be further teases in the coming weeks and months.
Are you planning to fire up Monster Hunter Rise to try and get the USJ armor sets? Let us know, as always, in the comments.

This USJ layered will be fun to mix with other armor, and the Palico layered is especially looking 👌👌
Meh! I prefer the novelty sets like in the past.
Sailor moon, Zelda, Metroid, Sega…..
I wish the event quests gave you more craziness instead of stickers and poses!
The more MHR content the better. I likely won't wear the layered armor but will certainly add it to the collection
@Lord The fact that we haven't had a legend of Zelda one yet is Crazy!
I’m a complete newbie to the game; given it as a Christmas present. If anybody has any pointers, share away! Having fun with it, but also feel like I don’t really know what I’m doing 🙈🤣
@CairiB I got just the dude for the job @JaxonH we could use your pointers!
Here is one of my biggest tips, Don't get hit.
Not but FR, it depends on what you would like to know.
@CairiB welcome to the hunt!
It’s a simple game made even simpler nowadays. Complete the quests in order, (not just the key quests). Kill the creature, learn what it’s weak too, farm some drops and carves to make new armour and weapons. Equip weapons creatures are weak to = kill creature faster. Use spiri birds to fill your health bar to the max before hunting harder creatures. Eat before each hunt, pick achievable sub quests for each hunt.
Rinse and repeat.
Hunt - Carve - Craft - Hunt - Carve - Craft!
Thanks @Lord and @Snatcher
It’s a lot of fun, I think maybe I just need to learn a little more about the armours etc then 🙌🏻
@CairiB Ya but you wont even worry about that, when your some how having so much fun fighting the same monster over and over again, I just don't know what it is, but, every hunt just feels different, you feel like you get better, you feel like your starting to master hunting that monster as well, its amazing!
@CairiB Also, take time to kill smaller monsters, bring poison smoke bombs for insects so you don’t destroy them before you can carve them, explore the areas and find out where certain endemic life resides, so you can gather what you need quickly for certain hunts. Before each hunt, you can also check out what other surges or critters will be out in that area on the quest page. Based on what you need. You can also check your hunter notes to see what monsters are weak to and what they drop. Bringing certain little things like flash and sonic bombs, and using them at the right time on certain monsters, can be very effective too.

Join us in the MH Rise forum here on the site. Any questions we can answer.
There's a LOT to learn in this game. But you learn bit by bit as you go.
I put together a Beginner's Guide in the forum. But I'll have to dig it up and repost since it was 6 months ago.
This wait is painful, I hope I don't wait to wait til the end of the Summer to play Sunbreak.
I like these new sets.
This is the same set as the MHW world set, but I'm down.
@CairiB I would take some time and watch a weapon breakdown video by Arekkz on youtube on whatever weapon you're using. it'll help a lot.
Love the hair, though im keeping my hunter naked
Thanks so much to everybody offering tips! @JaxonH, I’ll be sure to join ty ✌🏻😀
Definitely jumping back in for the obligatory USJ set. I like how this one has a distinct Yokai vibe, especially with the Palico. And it's about time that the event sets are distributed evenly across regions! Hopefully it stays that way.
