The announcement of this new Digital Event comes not long after producer Ryozo Tsujimoto and director Yasunori Ichinose released a video message to fans to cap off 2020. They thanked fans for their continued support of the series and told fans to expect more news in January 2021.
Monster Hunter: Rise releases on March 26, exclusively for Nintendo Switch. It was previously confirmed that a demo for Rise would be available in January, so it seems likely that the Digital Event will bring some news about that.
