Another day, another Capcom leak. As we informed you last month, Capcom plans to bring both Monster Hunter Rise and Monster Hunter Stories 2 on PC. And, according to some leaked documents, the Japanese company will release this new Monster Hunter game on the PC nine months after its Nintendo Switch release.

From the looks of it, Nintendo paid 200 million yen for limited-time exclusivity. This translates to $2 million. According to the leaked documents, Capcom can announce the PC version of Monster Hunter Rise six months after its Nintendo Switch release. Additionally, Capcom can release the game nine months after its Nintendo Switch release.

Not only that, but we have the first tech details about this upcoming PC version of Monster Hunter Rise. The game will support uncapped frameras, as well as Freesync and GSync. Moreover, it will offer proper mouse and keyboard controls. Not only that, but Capcom suggests its development team to avoid hard-coding the output resolution to 720p or 1080p, something that could have a major visual impact on the PC.
