The first announcement at today’s Nintendo Direct was a “massive expansion” forย Monster Hunter Rise. The latestย Monster Hunterย game was released earlier this year for the Nintendo Switch.ย Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreakย will be releasing in summer 2022 and is described as a “massive expansion” that will include new locales, monsters, hunts, and quest ranks. There’s no word on pricing for the expansion yet, but if other Nintendo Switch expansions are anything to go by, we could be expecting something in the $20 range.ย The Legend of Zelda:ย Breath of the Wildย released two expansions under one expansion pass back in 2017. Theย Breath of the Wildย expansion packย was released in two stages. The first came out in June 2017, with the second part of the expansion pass releasing in December 2017. Although, if the description in the Nintendo Direct indicates anything, thisย Monster Hunterย expansion should be considerably bigger than the ones released forย Breath of the Wild.

Nintendo’s Newfound Love for Expansions

Nintendo has released more expansion passes and DLC since the launch of the Nintendo Switch, something the company wasn’t well known for pre-Switch. Nintendo’s close relationship with Capcom since theย Monster Hunterย series’ moved from Playstation to Nintendo benefitted the company massively with the success of the 3DS. Monster Hunter on the 3DS proved to be a turning point for Nintendo after theย 3DS got off to a rockyย start back in 2010. The partnership between Nintendo and Capcom appears to be going strong with the recent launch of the Switch exclusiveย Monster Hunter Rise. Nintendo fans were concerned after the release and popularity ofย Monster Hunter: Worldย that Nintendo’s consoles wouldn’t receive anymore classicย Monster Hunter games. The newย Monster Hunter Riseย expansion pass should further quell those fears.

Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreakย will release in Summer 2022. Details on pricing are not available yet but expect to hear more details on the expansion over the coming months. Check out the trailer below.
