Monster Hunter Rise ‘Charge Blade’ and ‘Hunting Horn’ trailers

Capcom has released a new set of trailers for Monster Hunter Rise introducing the Charge Blade and Hunting Horn weapons.

Here is an overview of each weapon, via Capcom:

Charge Blade

Dynamic, crushing potential. The Charge Blade weaves together an empowered sword and stout shield to make up a mighty axe. Charge it up in sword mode, then unleash devastating attacks in axe mode.

“Counter Peak Performance” is a silkbind attack that readies your shield for incoming attacks; getting hit fills your phials to maximum, priming you for the ultimate counter attack.

Hunting Horn

Rhythmic, heart-pounding hits. The Hunting Horn smashes through the charts with powerful moves that stun monsters and buff your hunting party!

“Earthshaker” is a head-pounding beat silkbind attack that drives an Ironsilk-bound blade into the target like a stake. Sonic vibrations explode inside the target causing big damage!

Previous weapon trailers introduced the Great Sword, Switch Axe, Gunlance, Insect Glaive, Hammer, Sword & Shield, Heavy Bowgun, Light Bowgun, Lance, Long Sword, Bow, and Dual Blades.

Monster Hunter Rise is due out for Switch on March 26, 2021 worldwide. A limited-time demo is due out on January.
