Among the many tools present on Monster Hunter Rise, the main one is without a shadow of a doubt the Wirebug, a tool that players can use to not only travel with style but also reach new areas, as well as perform new, and devastating attacks. With that said, we will now tell you how to use the Wirebug in the PC version of Monster Hunter Rise, so that you can make use of all its functions in combat.

How to Use the Wirebug in Monster Hunter Rise

As we said above, Monster Hunter Rise’s Wirebug allows you to not only travel but also fight in a new series of ways. With that said, on PC, you can use the Wirebug dashes, or Wiredashes, by pressing L2/LT + △/Y or O/B, which will allow you to dash upward and forward. To dash towards a selected target, you just need to hold L2/LB + R2/RT. You can also recover from an attack, by using the Wirefall move, by pressing L2/LT + X/A after getting knocked over, as well as run through walls by pressing L2/LT + R2/RT and aiming towards a wall. Players can also stay midair by pressing O/B while in the air. After doing that, just press X/A after selecting your desired direction to dash. The tool also allows you to use your weapon’s Wirebug Silkbind Attack by pressing different buttons based on your weapon of choice.

To recap, here’s how to use the Wirebug in Monster Hunter Rise:
