Monster Hunter Rise is the latest entry in Capcom's long-running action-RPG series, and even though the game launched over a year ago, there's an expansion on the horizon that can be compared to the Iceborne expansion for Monster Hunter: World. For those that skipped out on World/Iceborne, then just know that Iceborne is massive, adding dozens of hours to the monster-hunting experience.

Sunbreak is the name of the new expansion for Monster Hunter Rise, launching this week for Switch and PC. It adds several entire new biomes, new/returning monsters, a new home base, a new rank of quests, and lots more for fans to look forward to. However, for those that are new to the series and might want to jump into Monster Hunter Rise for the first time, it can be intimidating.

By going over to the Gathering Hub, players can speak to Minoto to take on Hub Quests, which players will want to complete in order to eventually get to High Rank and see the story play out.
