Monster Hunter Rise Crosses 5 Million Units Shipped Worldwide

Capcom has revealed that Monster Hunter Rise has reached another sales milestone.

As announced via a press release, Monster Hunter Rise has now crossed 5 million units shipped as of April 5th 2021. This news comes only a week after the game crossed the 4 million unit mark on March 26th.

In addition to the milestone announcement, Capcom had this to say about their hit title:

Monster Hunter Rise is an all-new Monster Hunter title for Nintendo Switch. The game was developed with Capcom’s proprietary RE ENGINE in order to provide a new, accessible Monster Hunter experience that can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere and with anyone. In addition to new monsters and locales, the game provides a completely fresh take on the hunting experience through a host of new, exhilarating hunting actions made possible with the Wirebug. With this, players can traverse terrain at high speed, or even bind monsters and control them. Further adding to the excitement is the debut of new “canyne” hunting partners called Palamutes. The title garnered critical acclaim following the release of two demos featuring both local and online cooperative play prior to launch, with resulting shipments exceeding 5 million units one week since release.
