![]() ![]() PC Gamer gave it nine out of ten as well with similar comparisons to World and how the game now plays: The game also does a great job of providing information on how each setting impacts system performance thanks to Graphics Memory Usage and CPU Load indicators, which make tweaking all the settings to achieve the best balance between graphics quality and performance incredibly easy." The game features ultrawide support and tons of different graphics settings, ranging from a High-Resolution Textures toggle to multiple shadows options, including Dynamic and Equipment shadows, Level of Detail settings, and Anti-Aliasing options, and more. "The fact that Monster Hunter Rise runs so well isn't the only thing that makes it one of the best console-to-PC ports we have seen in recent times. The machine used for the test, powered by an i7-10700 CPU, RTX 3070 GPU, and 16 GB RAM, had no trouble running the game at 4K resolution, stable 120 frames per second at high to max settings. The game supports 30, 60, 90, 120, 144, 240 framerate caps as well as unlocked framerate, and a moderately powerful system will have no trouble running it at above 60 FPS. A less-demanding game, which still looks good thanks to the amazing RE Engine, however, means that most PC players will not have trouble running it at high framerates. "Having been originally released on the Nintendo Switch console, Monster Hunter Rise doesn't look as good as Monster Hunter World, although the different art direction makes the differences between the two games less aggravating. It also agrees it's one of the "best console-to-PC ports" in recent times and gave it nine out ten: also thinks World is a better-looking game, but liked the less-demanding nature of Rise on PC. The regions are mostly flat, featureless arenas that look empty compared to World’s complex and highly detailed environments." Now that World and Rise can be compared side-by-side on PC, it's staggering how stripped down and bland Rise really is. ![]() "If you’re coming from World, on the other hand, Rise is kind of a mixed bag.There’s no escaping the fact that Rise is a Switch game. If you played a lot of Rise in handheld mode on the Switch, you’re going to see things on the PC version you’ve never seen before." Even if you played the Switch version, Rise on PC is going to feel like a whole new game in a lot of ways. "The new 4K textures add so much detail to the monsters, and the increased frame rate makes every fight feel so much more fluid and intense. Its final score was four out of five stars. It also wasn't happy about the exclusion of cross-play support. TheGamer said it was a "definitive edition" of the game and praised it for being a massive leap "in quality over the Switch version" but admit it fell short when placed alongside the previous entry, Monster Hunter World. And while that’s great news for PC players who’ve never bought into Nintendo’s ecosystem, its graphics fail to impress, even on the most impressive of hardware." "Monster Hunter Rise on PC is just a different way to play a fantastic game. "Without cross-save between the Switch and PC, or visuals that improve on what players already have on a handheld system, it’s hard to see why anyone who’s already sunk hundreds of hours into Rise would jump ship for Steam. Polygon summed up the PC release as a different way to play, but wasn't sure it was worthwhile for existing players: So, what did the critics have to say about the PC version of the game? Read on. Here's our video review: Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube When Rise was originally released on Switch in 2021, we awarded it nine out of ten stars.
