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 pieces of equipment. Weapons, and the monsters whose parts can be used, vary from missions and the game.

Two Monster Hunter armor sets are the basis for paid [[downloadable content]] [[Alternate costume (SSB4)#Wave 4|costumes]] for {{SSB4|Mii Swordfighter}}s. The armor sets used are the [http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Hunter's_Armor_%28Blade%29%28MH3%29 Hunter's Blademaster Armor] while wielding the [http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Hunter's_Knife Hunter's Knife] sword and shield set, and the [http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Rathalos_Armor_%28Blade%29 Rathalos Blademaster Armor] while wielding the [http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Blazing_Falchion Blazing Falchion] sword and shield set.{{clr}}

The two 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 Miis are seen fighting several characters that refer to multiple monsters: a yellow {{SSBU|Yoshi}} along with smaller Yoshis referencing Qurupeco, a bird wyvern that can summon smaller monsters to aid it in battle from ''Monster Hunter 3''; pink {{SSBU|Donkey Kong}} referencing Congagala, a gorilla-like Fanged Beast from ''Monster Hunter 2''; {{SSBU|Ridley}} referencing the Yian Garuga, an aggressive purple bird wyvern from ''Monster Hunter Freedom Unite''; a white {{SSBU|Charizard}} along with many small white {{SSBU|Kirby}}s referencing Khezu, a strange worm-like flying wyvern that dwells in caves and creates small larvae, originating in the original ''Monster Hunter''; and the [[Peckish Aristocrab]] on [[Garden of Hope]] referencing the Daimyo Hermitaur, a large crab-like monster known as a Carapaceon introduced in ''Monster Hunter 2''.

The Hunter Equipment Miis can also be seen performing Stone Scabbard and Blade Counter, which very likely serve as references to the 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 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 Mii wearing the [[Felyne]] hat is carrying a barrel. This is referring to hunters placing down barrel bombs on sleeping monsters.
