From the xbox store: Capcom themselves tag it as a Role playing game.
Nintendo Eshop: Capcom themselves call Monster Hunter Rise an RPG
So there it is from the company themselves, and we already know many users call them RPG's because they are listed as such on both Wikipedia and by Steam tags.
So both Capcom and users call them rpgs.
Edit: and for good measure from the bottom of (monsterhunterworld.com)
