The hunt knows no end
One of the main additions of this version 2.0 of Monster Hunter Rise is the arrival of three well-known Elder Dragons of the license: Chameleos, present on the Nintendo 3DS titles, Teostra and Kushala Daora, already present on Monster Hunter World. These three monsters should provide a bit of a challenge for seasoned hunters, with some nice rewards.
But that's not all, because version 2.0 also welcomes variants of the iconic Diablos and Rathalos monsters. Called respectively Apex Diablos and Apex Rathalos, these are inspired by the variants present on the 3DS titles and should prove to be much tougher than their original colleagues. It will be possible to meet them during hunts and calamities.
To discover this new content, the rank of hunter will be unlocked and it will therefore be necessary to rise in rank in order to rub shoulders with the new residents of the vicinity of Kamura. With these many additions of additional equipment, it will finally be possible to customize the appearance of your armor thanks to the transmogrification system already present in Monster Hunter World. It will also be possible to change the overall appearance of his character, by obtaining a ticket sold only on the Nintendo eShop.

Still more free content to come
If the content offered by this version 2.0 of Monster Hunter Rise is already substantial, it could be that other monsters will enter, in addition to the five already presented. In any case, this is what the most discerning can conclude by seeing the mention “And more! » in the section of the additions relating to the monsters of this version 2.0. It remains to be seen whether it will be one or more surprise monsters in addition to an already provided bestiary.
And the celebrations are far from over for Monster Hunter Rise. The end of the trailer presenting the new features of version 2.0 indeed draws up a roadmap for the content to come in the game in the short term. Version 3.0 of Monster Hunter Rise is thus expected at the end of May and will add a new chapter to the main story, as well as several new monsters. We bet that one of them will act as a new and formidable end-of-story boss, pending the injection of other free content over the coming months.
