In your previous life, while playing Monster Hunter, you were involved in an accident (a truck crashed into a cafe, and you were caught in it) and died.

Wondering how it came to this, you wake up to find yourself in a familiar cave. Yes, somehow, you have been reincarnated into the world of Monster Hunter Rise!

A Rathalos flying in the sky suddenly looks your way. It lets out a roar as if to intimidate you and descends toward your position.
