Monster Hunter Rise has just been released on the PC and we have the complete default key binds for you right here. You’ll need to get a hold of these key binds in order to play the game in the most efficient way possible. While there are a few bugs and issues that are plaguing the game, the developers have copied most of their overall layout from Monster Hunter: World.
As always, you’ll be able to change any of these binds if need be. However, we recommend keeping them at their default if you are using a mouse and keyboard.
