The new content features a Sonic-themed layered armor outfit for your Hunter, a Palico costume that makes them look exactly like the blue hedgehog, and a Palamute costume resembling Tails, the two-tailed fox often featured in Sonic the Hedgehog games.
The Sonic the Hedgehog X Monster Hunter Rise collaboration goes live in Monster Hunter Rise November 26, 2021. The content will be free, so don't worry if you're not inclined to purchase additional DLC on the Nintendo Switch eShop.
Monster Hunter's gameplay loop is equal parts challenging and addictive. Take on quests to hunt a wide variety of amazingly designed monsters on your own or with friends as you protect the peaceful Kamura village from the impending doom that is the Rampage.
