Monster Hunter Rise Lands on iPhone and Android Through Netflix Games

Tied to a Netflix subscription, the soft regional launch brings a native mobile port that raises questions about DLC inclusion and long-term access.

Overview

  • App Store and Google Play listings that appeared Wednesday show a native iOS and Android build of Monster Hunter Rise delivered through Netflix Games and require a Netflix membership to download and play.
  • The mobile pages describe rebuilt touch controls, a new Recovery Button that auto-selects healing items, unlocked Challenge/Event Quests, and four-player online multiplayer, while not mentioning the Sunbreak expansion.
  • Initial storefront notes indicate a small app download of about 800MB plus an additional in-game download near 8.3GB, which may affect device storage for players.
  • The rollout appears to be a soft, region-limited launch focused on parts of Southeast Asia, with no official global announcement from Capcom or Netflix and no confirmed cross-play or save-transfer details.
  • Capcom announced on Tuesday that Rise has sold 20 million units, and this Netflix release arrives as the franchise prepares for new mobile competition from Tencent’s Monster Hunter Outlanders.
