Monster Hunter Rise is a marvellous videogame, but on 30th June it'll (hopefully) get even better with the arrival of its 'massive expansion' - Sunbreak. The DLC will add a new location, cast, additional and overhauled monsters, along with some interesting gameplay tweaks and mechanics.
In the latter category, we're going to have new Silkbind moves and Switch Skills, techniques that will help you take your hunting to the next level. New weapon moves are always a big deal for the more accomplished players in the game, and some of them are looking rather tasty when executed.
Capcom has released a few videos showcasing new moves, below:
Sword & Shield
Switch Axe
Heavy Bowgun
This scribe's treasured Insect Glaive is yet to feature, though in reality most hunts are spent desperately vaulting around to avoid monster attacks. We all have our preferred playstyles, ok?
Let us know what you think in the comments, and if you're planning to try out any of these moves when Sunbreak arrives on 30th June.

I'm terrible at this game but I'm definitely looking forward to this.
Yup, I’m a Glaive main too, Mr Whitehead. I’ve tried every weapon and it’s by far, the most fun. It’s like Bayonetta in the air
Can't wait to see what the Glaive is getting...
You guys enjoy your "DPS." I'll be waging an unending battle against gravity, ground-dwellers.
@Octorok385 word my friend. Word. I’ll be flying those unfriendly skies as well. I just taught my buddy (who’s been a long sword main) the glaive. Listening to him giggle and exclaiming “oh my God! That was so dope! Wait wait wait, how did I do that? Hold on, I gotta get this..” He’s thrilled. He says he does prefer the power of the long sword, but the fight is nowhere near as fun as the glaive and that he’s found his new main. Don’t sleep on the glaive y’all. FUN
Guy in the top pick deciding between his vertical or horizontal slash skill w/ his Moonveil tells me the withdrawals are going to be difficult this week after 300 hours of Elden Ring.
I didn't expect the Switch Axe to get a counter but hey I'm not complaining.
Combat is looking to be even more fun than base game which was already amazing.
looks awesome.. do we know how much this expansion costs?
@Smug43 pretty sure it's €39.99
Siege mode is back for HBG! Thank goodness! I loved siege mode pierce gunning back in MH3U/4U, so anything that buffs pierce ammo again for Rise is much appreciated.
@RubyCarbuncle It just takes a lot of practice, everyone sucks when they first start.
So many awesome new silkbinds. Switch Axe gets a counter?!! HBG gets siege mode from MHGU, and Sword and Shield gets Destroyer Oil from MHGU also?
Sunbreak is looking 🔥 🔥 🔥
@Jokerwolf Oh I've been playing Monster Hunter games for a while now but compared to other players I'm just not as good as them.
@RubyCarbuncle That's OK I don't mind carrying people anyway I find it's fun.
