Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak has dumped a heap of content on players to sort through. New sets of Switch Skills to be employed during hunts are part of the expansion’s offerings. But, what skills are available for each weapon type and how do you unlock them?

How to unlock MHR Sunbreak Switch Skills

There are three Switch Skills for each weapon type in Sunbreak. They are unlocked as hunters progress through the story.

The first set of skills is given to hunters during the tutorial mission. After speaking with Arena Master Arlow in Elgado, Master Utsushi will appear and teach hunters the Switch Skill Swap technique and give that first set of skills.

Upon reaching Master Rank 4 and completing two hunts in this rank, Master Utsushi will request the hunter’s audience back in Kamura Village. This will unlock the second and third sets of Switch Skills.
