If the Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak Switch Pro Controller follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, it will appear when the expansion launches. When Monster Hunter Rise appeared, it got a similar controller. However, its Switch Pro Controller had a gold Magnamalo on it. Hori also released a Split Pad Pro controller with Magnamalo art too.

This is one of quite a few announcements from the May presentation. For example, Capcom revealed Seregios would appear in the expansion. It also went over the new Follower Quests with NPCs.

Monster Hunter Rise is available for the Nintendo Switch and PC. Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak will release for PC and Nintendo Switch on June 30, 2022.
