Capcom has announced the next collaboration event for Monster Hunter Rise.

On August 27th, Monster Hunter Rise will receive an Event Quest that adds layered armor based on Akuma from the Street Fighter series. The materials to acquire the costume can be obtained by clearing the Quest. Wearing this layered armor will change the hunter’s voice and appearance to match Akuma, and replaces their attacks with Akuma’s moves if they are using the Sword and Shield.

You can check out the trailer below for a look at the armor in action.

Earn layered armor that’ll turn your hunter into Akuma from the Street Fighter series!

Equip this layered armor to not only alter your hunter’s voice and appearance, but to change kunai attacks into Akuma’s iconic moves, like the Gohadoken and the Zanku Hadoken. Akuma even has his own special animation on the Quest Completed screen!

If you equip a sword & shield, your attacks will change into punches and kicks. Perform a Perfect Rush to dish out a fearsome combo, and use various Silkbind attacks to unleash moves like the Goshoryuken and the Tatsumaki Zankukyaku on unsuspecting monsters!
Your pose while your weapon is drawn will change into something special as well, so make sure you grab this layered armor to see for yourself!
