Monster Hunter Rise ‘Gunlance’ and ‘Insect Glaive’ Trailers

Capcom has released a new set of trailers for Monster Hunter Rise Introducing Gunlance and Insect Glaive weapons.

Here’s a look at each weapon, via Capcom:

Gunlance

An explosive and unwavering artillery. The Gunlance unites impenetrable defense with high-powered ballistics. Stagger your prey with a multitude of bombardments and deal massive damage with its Wyvern’s Fire attack.

“Guard Edge” is a silk attack that takes incoming attacks and restores sharpness to your weapon, setting it up for retaliation.

Insect Glaive

Air combat ace. The Insect Glaive excels at aerial hunting tactics with the combination of a nimble staff and a Kinsect that absorbs essences from monsters, converting them into buffs.

“Recall Kinsect” is a silk attack that recalls your Kinsect while dodging. Upon his return, he will perform spinning attacks that disperse healing extracts, heal the hunter, and regain all of his stamina.

Previous weapons trailers featured the Hammer, Sword and Shield, Heavy Barrel Shotgun, Light Bow Rifle, Spear, Long Sword, Bow, and Dual Blades.

Monster Hunter Rise is scheduled for Switch on March 26, 2021 worldwide. A limited-time demo is slated for January.
