Best Buy has pre-ordered a brand new bonus associated with this Monster Hunter Rise on Nintendo Switch. Fans who prefer to tackle the game at the retailer will receive a SteelBook suitcase, as well as a pre-ordered bonus package filled with various items in the game. There are currently three options for purchasing the game, including the standard version, a Deluxe Edition and a Collector’s Edition. Although the Collector’s Edition is not currently available for pre-order, all three options will also be accompanied by the SteelBook and the Bonus Pack! That extra bonus might entice some players to pick up the game at the dealer!
The pre-ordered bonus package contains the following items in the game:
- Palamute Golden Retriever Costume (Layered Armor)
- Palico Forest Cat Costume (Layered Armor)
- Stat Boosting Begins Talisman
True to its name, the Palamute Golden Retriever costume will make the player’s playmate look like that particular dog breed! In addition to the Best Buy pre-order bonus, Capcom has revealed that players can pick up a number of free items in the game by playing the game’s demo, which is currently available in the Nintendo Switch eShop. However, the demo leaves the digital store on February 1st, so players who have not yet jumped on it will want to do so very quickly!

Monster Hunter Rise will be released worldwide on March 26, exclusively on Nintendo Switch. You can see all our previous coverage of the game here. Best Buy’s pre-order page for all three versions of the game can be found here.
