Hey Hunters,
Welcome to the fifth instalment of Kamura Hunter’s Hub and our first post since Monster Hunter Rise launched on Steam!
To mark the occasion, we’ll be touching base on the game’s launch, helping new players settle into Kamura and known issues.
We’ll then wrap things up with a mysterious tease for the future from Sunbreak Director Suzuki, so don’t miss out on that!
The hunt is on!
It’s been a little over two weeks since Monster Hunter Rise launched on Steam and we want to say a huge THANK YOU for all of your amazing support so far!
With so many Hunters joining the hunt we know Kamura is in the best possible hands and the Rampage can be defeated!
Whether Monster Hunter Rise is your first Monster Hunter title, or you’re joining us from Monster Hunter World, welcome! We hope you’re having a great time and taking hunts to new action-packed heights with your Wirebugs!
Reading through your comments and feedback, we’re so pleased to see the PC specific additions such as HD Textures, 4K, voice chat, Ultrawide and unique filters going down so well, so thank you for letting us know!
We’d also like to take a moment to say thanks to those more experienced Hunters who are taking the time to answer questions from new players about weapons, armour skills and all things Monster Hunter on the forums. We see you spreading the goodness like a Hunting Horn main in an Urgent Quest!
Settling into Kamura!
Guild Cross Armor
Looking for a small boost to help you with early quests as you find your feet as a Hunter? Then you’ll want to go and talk to Senri the Mailman in Kamura Village to claim your free Guild Cross armour set!
The Mailman
The Set
The Guild Cross set is an optional armour set that grants a small boost for the early quests as you build experience, craft and upgrade your first weapons and search out new armour sets to build.
You can choose to wear the full set or pick out pieces to complement your armour skills from other sets.
Donning full Guild Cross will impart the following boons:
- 120 base defence (24 per piece)
- A range of gathering and exploration armour skills
Whilst this set is great for the start of Monster Hunter Rise, keep in mind that as you progress up through the Village and Gathering Hub quest chains, you’ll discover that your armour becomes less effective and protecting you from damage – so keep a look out for stronger armour sets and pieces that compliment your playstyle by visiting Hamon the Blacksmith regularly!
Hunter’s Notes – Kamura Hunter Tips
On the run up to launch we put together some posts that detail some key Monster Hunter Rise features, such as Wirebugs, Silkbind Attacks and making the most of the Village!
Launch brought a lot of new Hunters to the community hub (Hello!!), so we’re just sharing a quick refresher on those topics for Hunters who are interested in getting a quick overview and some useful tips that will serve them well on the hunt…
Introducing Wirebugs & Mobility Usage
Offensive Wirebug Usage – Silkbind Attacks
Known Issues – Feedback & Fixes
Whilst bugs are the last thing we like to see, we’d like to take this opportunity to show our appreciation for players who have been taking the time to report and detail any issues they’ve encountered since launch.
One example of this was the “Failed to Save” bug which impacted a number of players at launch, stopping them creating a save file and starting the game. Thanks to the patience and feedback from those effected we were able to release a patch last week that fixed it!
If you’ve been impacted by this bug, please make sure your game is up to date with Ver.3.6.1.1 and follow these instructions to apply the fix!
The team are remaining vigilant and monitoring player feedback across the Steam forums should any other players encounter issues.
If you do encounter a bug, please let us know HERE with as many details as you can provide on the issue, as well as information such as your PC specs. This will be very helpful at assisting the process.
Sunbreak Director Suzuki Update
Hello everyone! I'll be revealing some key phrases from today on! First one: "Kingdom Creatures."

Quest Complete – We’ll see you next time!
That wraps up this week’s community post! Thanks for taking the time to check it out.
We hope you’re all having a fantastic time with Monster Hunter Rise and exploring everything Kamura has to offer.
We’ll be back again soon with our next post, and in the meantime, we’ll be reading through your comments here on Steam! You can also keep up to speed with all things Monster Hunter by following us on our official Twitter account.
Have a great weekend everyone, we’ll see you in the hunt!
