Monster Hunter Rise: How to Invert Camera
To begin, it is important to establish that players cannot invert the y-axis immediately upon starting Monster Hunter Rise, and they must play through the introduction with the default camera. This introduction is not extremely long, though, and fans should plan to adjust the camera just before leaving Kamura Village and tackling the game’s first mission.

Upon reaching that point in the game, players should open the Start menu and tab over to System on the far right. Monster Hunter Rise fans should then select Options under System and navigate to the Camera tab. It is within this tab that players will invert the y-axis, and they should set these three settings to Type 3:
Camera Controls Reticle Controls Gunner Reticle Camera Controls
Upon confirming those changes, players will find that the camera’s y-axis is inverted at all times, including when using a Gunner weapon, Insect Glaive, or Wirebug in Monster Hunter Rise. It is not requisite that fans use an inverted camera for absolutely everything, though, as some of the aforementioned settings can be kept at Type 1 while others are changed to Type 3. For those players that would like to try out different camera combinations, the Camera Controls setting affects the standard gameplay camera, the Reticle Controls setting affects the camera when using a Wirebug or throwable item, and the Gunner Reticle Camera Controls setting affects the camera when using a Gunner weapon or Insect Glaive.
To note, Type 1 and Type 3 are certainly not the only options that players have to pick from when adjusting the game’s cameras, as there is also a Type 2 and Type 4. For full clarity, Type 2 inverts the horizontal axis, while Type 4 inverts both the horizontal and vertical axes, and again fans of RPGs with unique classes should feel free to experiment with different combinations of these settings. Indeed, with movement playing such a big role in Monster Hunter Rise, it is worthwhile to put some amount of effort toward finding camera controls that feel natural.
Monster Hunter Rise is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
