Monster Hunter Rise will be coming to Nintendo Switch next year, but if you’re in the mood for a bit of slaying in the meantime, the upcoming Monster Hunter movie might be just what you need. The film stars Milia Jovovich, who fans of the cinematic Resident Evil series might recognize as Alice. Take a look:

Here’s the synopsis of Monster Hunter:
“Behind our world, there is another: a world of dangerous and powerful monsters that rule their domain with deadly ferocity. When an unexpected sandstorm transports Captain Artemis (Milla Jovovich) and her unit (TI Harris, Meagan Good, Diego Boneta) to a new world, the soldiers are shocked to discover that this hostile and unknown environment is home to enormous and terrifying monsters immune to their firepower. In their desperate battle for survival, the unit encounters the mysterious Hunter (Tony Jaa), whose unique skills allow him to stay one step ahead of the powerful creatures. As Artemis and Hunter slowly build trust, she discovers that he is part of a team led by the Admiral (Ron Perlman). Facing a danger so great it could threaten to destroy their world, the brave warriors combine their unique abilities to band together for the ultimate showdown.”
There’s no exact launch date for the movie, and with the pandemic continuing to cause delays in the film industry it’s possible this could change. We’ll update when we finally learn the release date or if Monster Hunter gets pushed back.
