Of course, playing this game for just a week is not enough to feel the adrenaline rush when battling the ferocious monsters.
However, if you want to prolong your gaming experience with "Monster Hunter Rise" you can purchase its full game version so you can continue your progress during the seven-day trial.
Your saved files will be continued on your Switch, including your in-game achievements that you accomplished during the free trial. To take advantage of this, NME recommends that users should subscribe to the Nintendo Switch Online subscription.
Upon purchasing this, you will be eligible to play other games as part of the standard subscription package. If you want to explore even the classic games from Sega and Nintendo 64, you need to purchase the premium membership for the Plus Expansion Pack.
For that, you need to pay a monthly fee of $3.99 for the individual membership. If you want to save more, go for an annual membership package of $19.99.
For game sharing with your family and friends, you can opt for the family package, which costs $34.99 per year. More members for this subscription means more savings for the whole squad.
Meanwhile, the Premium subscription costs $49.99 per year.
