First up, Crimson Glow Valstrax and Apex Zinogre will be coming to the game via this title update which launches on May 26th 8pm EST.  

Crimson Glow Valstrax is a new variant of the Valstrax, which was the flagship monster from Monster Hunter Generations. While the Apex Zinogre has brand new attacks and a new color palette.

June’s Capcom Collab will feature the Palico Tsukino from Monster Hunter Stories 2 as a layered armor set in Monster Hunter Rise. There are more Capcom collabs set for both the end of July and August so be on the lookout for those.
