| The core gameplay loop of every mainline ''Monster Hunter'' game is taking up quests in hunting and defeating monsters. Once a monster is defeated, players can salvage parts of a monster, which can be used to create various pieces of equipment. These include weapons, armor, augmentations, and other items, with parts of certain monsters granting unique abilities.
| |
| | |
| The Hunter's Armor Set is a recurring set of armor throughout the ''Monster Hunter'' series. It is usually the first non-default armor available for purchase from the armory. The Hunter's Knife is the first sword and shield in the "Iron" series of weapons. The Rathalos Armor Set is also a recurring armor set. By repeatedly hunting [[Rathalos]], a hunter can gather enough parts from carving to assemble the set. The set is modeled after Rathalos in appearance. The Blazing Falchion is a sword and shield that can be crafted from Rathalos parts.

| The two {{SSBU|Mii Swordfighter}} costumes from ''SSB4'' were released as DLC for ''Ultimate'' on March 4th, 2021. The timing window for their release was set to double as a promotion for ''{{s|wikipedia|Monster Hunter Rise}}''.

| The [[trailer]] for the Monster Hunter costumes in ''Ultimate'' contain a myriad of references to the ''Monster Hunter'' series. Along with the Rathalos, the Hunter and Rathalos Equipment [[Mii]]s are seen fighting several characters that refer to multiple monsters: a yellow {{SSBU|Yoshi}} along with smaller Yoshis referencing [https://monsterhunter.fandom.com/wiki/Qurupeco Qurupeco], a bird wyvern that can summon smaller monsters to aid it in battle from ''Monster Hunter 3''; pink {{SSBU|Donkey Kong}} referencing [https://monsterhunter.fandom.com/wiki/Congalala Congagala], a gorilla-like Fanged Beast from ''Monster Hunter 2''; {{SSBU|Ridley}} referencing the [https://monsterhunter.fandom.com/wiki/Yian_Garuga Yian Garuga], an aggressive purple bird wyvern with noticeably hardened skin from ''Monster Hunter Freedom Unite''; and a white {{SSBU|Charizard}} along with many small white {{SSBU|Kirby}}s referencing [https://monsterhunter.fandom.com/wiki/Khezu Khezu], a strange worm-like flying wyvern that dwells in caves and creates small larvae, introduced in the original ''Monster Hunter''.

| | | [[File:Rathalos Origin.png|thumb|left|140px|Rathalos armor as seen in the ''Monster Hunter'' series.]] |
| The Hunter Equipment Miis can also be seen performing [[Stone Scabbard]] and [[Blade Counter]], which very likely serve as references to the [https://monsterhunter.fandom.com/wiki/Long_Sword long sword] moves Spirit Helm Breaker and Foresight Slash, respectively. Similarly, the Rathalos Equipment Miis perform a [[parry]], [[Hero's Spin]], and [[Blurring Blade]], likely referring to guard points, Amped Elemental Discharge, and Super Amped Elemental Discharge, respectively, which are all notable moves utilized by the [https://monsterhunter.fandom.com/wiki/Charge_Blade charge blade] weapon. Near the end of the Round 9 Mii Costume trailer, the hunter Miis are seen standing next to a collapsed Rathalos while a [[Felyne]] hat Mii is carrying a [[barrel]]. This is referring to hunters placing down barrel bombs on sleeping monsters.
| | In every ''Monster Hunter'' game to date, as the game's title states, players take up quests in hunting and defeating monsters. Their parts can be used to create various equipments. Weapons, and the monsters whose parts can be used, vary from missions and the game. |

| Purchasing the Hunter's Mail costume alters the {{h2|List of spirits (Others)|Palamute}} spirit battle introduced in the [[MONSTER HUNTER RISE]] spirit event, with the {{SSBU|Mii Swordfighter}} in said battle switching to said costume instead of the Ninja Headband and Ninja Suit. Similarly, purchasing the Rathalos Armor costume alters the {{h2|List of spirits (Others)|Razewing Ratha}} spirit battle which was added in version 13.0.0, with the Mii Swordfighter in said battle switching to said costume instead of the Ninja Headband and Standard Outfit.
