Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is now just a few hours away, and the developers have revealed everything coming along with the latest expansion pack. During one of the recent Monster Hunter digital events, the director Yoshitake Suzuki provided an in-depth look at Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Switch Skill Swap ability which allows you to switch skills during the fight. As one of the new mechanics, players should learn about how to use Switch Skill Swap to combat monsters in Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak.
How to Switch Skill Swap in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak
Switch Skill Swap is a new mechanic in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak that enables you to switch between red and blue switch skill swap scrolls. The Sunbreak expansion pack features over 14 new weapons, each boasting a unique pair of switch skills and silkbind attacks.
In order to use Switch Skill Swap in Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak, press (LT for melee or R for ranged) and then Y+B simultaneously on your controller while the weapon is sheathed. On the other hand, Switch players have to press ZL + X + A on their console to use Switch Skill Swap.
This will allow you to change the switch skill you have equipped on the fly. Luckily, this feature has no limit, meaning hunters can Switch Skill Swap as many times as they want.
On top of that, players can also dodge immediately after using a Switch Skill Swap. While it’s a great move to reposition yourself, dodging instantly after using the swap ability slightly depletes stamina from your health bar.
Monster Hunter enthusiasts might know that the Switch Skill Swap mechanic was unavailable in earlier versions. However, the predecessors allowed the hunters to customize their abilities before engaging in battle.
How to Change Switch Skill Loadouts in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak

- Go to any Item Box or visit your Tent.
- Choose Manage Switch Skills and then select Change Switch Skill.
- Select Red Swap Scroll and equip your favorite skill.
- Do the same with Blue Swap Scroll and press the back button.
