Amongst the various trailers and announcements at The Game Awards last night, we got another look at Monster Hunter Rise, with some welcome news of a demo coming in January.

The limited-time demo will give players a chance to check out the game before it releases exclusively on Switch on 26 March next year.

We need you to protect Kamura Village!
