Capcom announced that the upcoming major addition to the action role-playing game Iceborne will be released on September 6th for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. PC owners will have to be patient: the expansion will be released on Steam only in the winter (a more exact date has not been named). At the same time, the developers presented a fresh trailer.
According to Capcom, Monster Hunter: World Iceborne expansion will be huge, tell a new story, offer fresh locations and opponents. It will also bring back some fan-favorite enemies from previous games, including Nargakuga from Monster Hunter Freedom Unite.
Iceborne will send players to the snowy Hofrost Reach, which the developers promise will be the largest region in Monster Hunter: World. Players will have to think about how to keep warm in this cold country, resorting to hot drinks and natural thermal springs to prevent the harmful effects of hypothermia. Players will encounter new creatures such as popo, stonebeal and ice bugs - insects that roll snowballs like dung bugs. Players will also get the ability to ride winged molotos.
New monsters include the banbaro wyvern, which likes to fight other monsters and can throw boulders and trees with its horns; Beotodus, one of the first large monsters that players will encounter in the expansion, loves to hide deep in the snow; and finally, Velhana, a new ancient dragon capable of performing ice attacks.
To combat these monsters, Capcom will be adding new combat options and additional combos to existing weapons. Monster Hunter: World Iceborne is $39,99 as a standalone expansion and $59,99 with the base game.
