Monster Hunter Rising PC unlock time

Capcom hasn't officially confirmed Monster Hunter Rise'due south PC unlock fourth dimension, but it looks similar we can expect it to hit Steam at 12 pm Eastern Time on January 12, 2022. I've asked Capcom for comment, and so I'll update this page when I know for sure. When the equivalent fourth dimension passed for me in the UK (5pm GMT) at the fourth dimension of writing, the Steam page changed from "2 days" to unlock to "1 days 23 hours".

Both Monster Hunter World and Iceborne unlocked at midday ET, too, so it seems likely that Rise will unlock at the same fourth dimension. If that's the example, Rise will unlock on PC at the following times:

New York: 12 pm ET
Los Angeles: 9 am PT
London: v pm GMT
France: six pm CEST

As with previous Monster Hunter games on Steam, there doesn't appear to be a mode to pre-load, but its 23GB file size isn't too onerous compared to PC gaming's mightiest storage hogs. Yous can all the same download the Steam demo, though.

You'll have plenty to get stuck into when the full game arrives on January 12, and even more then when the Sunbreak expansion comes out this summer. And unlike most major Monster Hunter releases, it's a simultaneous one between PC and console. That'll bring a new expanse, story, monsters and quest rank.
