The world of Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is surprisingly interconnected. One dedicated player recently demonstrated this with an epic journey, traversing vast distances from the starting area to the game's endgame zones.
On the Monster Hunter subreddit, user -BrotherPig- shared a video (see below) showcasing their incredible trek across multiple zones. Beginning in the Windward Plains, they navigated dunes and diverse landscapes, ultimately reaching some of the game's most challenging areas. (Spoiler warning: if you haven't completed the main story, watch with caution!)
Did you know there's only 1 loading screen between the Plains and Suja? 9min ride through all zones. byu/-BrotherPig- inMonsterHunter
This remarkably long, continuous journey highlights the seamless connection between zones. Only one loading screen interrupts the entire trip, occurring during the transition from the Oilwell Basin to the Iceshard Cliffs. Otherwise, it's a single, impressive run for this seemingly tireless hunter.
While Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak isn't entirely free of loading screens (there are loading screens for the training grounds and fast travel), the extent of the zone connectivity is truly impressive. This continuous traversal provides a fresh perspective on the intricate pathways and passages connecting the Forbidden Lands.
