Four million copies<\/a> of Monster Hunter Rise have shipped,\u00a0meaning that the latest entry in Capcom\u2019s fantasy adventure franchise has had an incredibly successful launch. However, a severe bug that locks save files has been discovered. Capcom is aware of this issue and is working to implement a fix.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After completing a quest in the Monster Hunter games, it\u2019s customary to strike a pose with others (or by yourself, I suppose) to celebrate the victory. As of right now, players are reporting issues with activating the Action and Hurt poses. Apparently, if you quit your game after using these poses from the action bar, you won\u2019t be able to open your save file when\u00a0you return to the game.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

We\u2019re aware of an issue with the Action\/Hurt Pose DLC gestures where setting either to the action bar and quitting the game can cause an error preventing you from opening the same save file the next time you launch the game.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re working on an update to fix this ASAP.<\/p>\n

In a thread of tweets, Capcom confirmed the problem and voiced its plan to get the issue remedied as soon as possible, \u201cWe\u2019re aware of an issue with the Action\/Hurt Pose DLC gestures where setting either to the action bar and quitting the game can cause an error preventing you from opening the same save file the next time you launch the game…this also occurs when setting the Action or Hurt Pose gestures to the Radial Menu, so please avoid doing this (or remove if you already have done) until a fix is released.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For now, it\u2019s advised that players access these poses from the start menu.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m a huge Monster Hunter fan. While I definitely enjoyed my time with Rise, for the most part, I felt as if the newer features didn\u2019t spice up the classic Monster Hunter formula in significant ways. In my review<\/a>,\u00a0I wrote,\u00a0\u201cMonster Hunter Rise is far from being the next definitive chapter in the series. Nevertheless, if you\u2019re looking for a polished-but-conventional adventure with a few small-scale nuances, then you\u2019ll be right at home in Kamura Village.\u201d If you haven’t already, read or watch How To Get Started In Monster Hunter Rise<\/a> to survive the difficulty curve in the opening hours.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
