Japanese Youtubers are already playing the demo, their embargo lifts 9 hours after the stream starts.
Hate this influencer bullshit lol, just release the demo if is ready.
Ooh can't wait for the Demo. Hope they shadow drop it. Have a presentation for work, then I am going to delve in. Super excited for rise
pff
There will likely be a MHR edition Switch but I don't know if that would be announced at a Capcom event.
yeah I was worried about that. Or did they just mean limited, time demo. Like there's just a time limit for the hunts as usual.
I'm sure it will be a demo with pre made hunters and every weapon type.
You can fight a week monster, a medium one and the flagship one.
No progress will carrie over.

with limited time demos, once you download it will it remain in your purchase history or will they completely remove it from the eshop after a while?
With Monhun 'limited time' demos, it usually just means the hunts have a stricter time limit than usual. 30m rather than the usual 50m rings a bell, but it's been a while.

ah, i see! i thought they mean the demo will be up for only a week or something.
IIRC, it's Switch exclusive for half a year, I imagine either at the tail-end of that or just after it ends they'll announce the PC version.
No way on earth they're announcing it now.
Gotta move on at some point for the next game in the series. Not like World wasn't well supported by the end, either.
Considering the leaks, they have a lot of ammunition here to dazzle people with the roster to get folks really pumped for the game.
I'm the same, reckon I'll pour more time into this than everything I played last year combined.
no saves carrying over is a bummer for me nowadays, with demo versions, but I'll try this out for sure
Have they ever had save carry over in Monster Hunter demos?
Feel like MH isn't a game where that makes sense cause early game is too slow to make a demo out of which is why GU and World just set you up with a few different armor sets against a few specific monsters

I recently redownloaded MH Generations demo from my purchase history despite it being pulled (at least in EU territories). Same with other time exclusive demos from what ive seen.
I can't remember them ever doing it. MH Stories did, but the not the main MH games.
The experience with Monster Hunter Demos on 3DS was that you could pick between all weapon types, with each having a prebuilt weapon and armor set. You then select between three different hunts, usually a beginner friendly one, an intermediate one, and a more difficult one. I believe you would also have the option of doing the hunts in multiplayer as well, but I could be wrong about that. That is the kind of demo that I am expecting and in that context, carrying over anything from the demo doesn't really make any sense, as you aren't really gaining anything or progressing at all. Honestly, these type of demos seem to mostly be for existing fans of the game and probably don't really benefit newcomers as they basically just drop you in a hunt with no real explanation.
I believe World had a different type of demo where it was only active during several day period. I didn't participate in that, so I don't really know any details on what it contained.

i imagine with the game likely having a slow start, it wouldn't make much sense to do a demo that's just the beginning with progress being carried to the full version. it makes more sense to release a demo showcasing gameplay in different stages of the game.
MH demos are usually 2-3 hunts with pre made Hunters/Gear to get the feel of the weapons and game.
I thought the hack was was literally every plan for the next few years?
Oh yes, I agree
it's just that this kind of demo arent' THAT interesting for me, nowadays (I briefly tried BDII for example, and deleted it after 1.5 hours)
Here I'll try the game to see a couple of weapons, a monster, the graphic impact and I'll probbaly delete it right after
1TB of data was stolen and the thiefs are releasing then in batches. So we will continue to get leaks until all the data is released.
I was thinking we would only get a trailer this week but this is much better. They'll probably show the new mounting system and also the changes to the turf wars.
Yeah. I'm hoping they feature a few weapons to try out or something. Haven't really played a MH game since the psp days so hopefully this is way more streamlined. Lol.
That's the idea, they've been building on each entry since Tri- 4 Ultimate. World build on 4 Ultimate and Generations and and Rise is gonna build on World, adapting from it while having new mechanics and World is is most likely taking hints from Rise.
If it wasn't already obvious, the weapons and armor that will be available in the demo are definitely the same sets they used for all the one minute weapon intro trailers.
If they drop it on Thursday or Friday, there's my plans for most of the weekend instantly dealt with lol.
