Hunters, Spring has arrived, and with it comes the Spring Festival event in Monster Hunter Now! Are you ready for Ebony Odogaron to make its debut? During this event, you can collect special exchangeable materials, Spring Eggs and Rainbow Eggs, by hunting target monsters and more. These materials can be traded for various useful items at the Event Exchange Hub. Starting April 18th, Giant Egg Toys will also appear in Hunt-a-thons, rewarding even more exchangeable materials! Event-exclusive weapons come with fun gimmicks, and the Bunny Head armor is unique in that the color changes for each hunter. Special Spring-themed layered equipment packs will also be available in the shop, perfect for celebrating in style! Take on monsters, earn special rewards, and enjoy the seasonal hunt. Happy Spring Festival!

Hunters, Numbers of Glavenus, Mizutsune, and Pink Rathian are on the rise! We’re also expecting Dimensional Rifts to cause an increase in dimensionally linked monsters. To prepare for these changes, we’ve prepared limited-time quests themed around group hunts. Rewards include various materials, including a Glavenus Plate and Mizutsune Plate if you make it to the end! You can also look forward to more group hunt and Hunt-a-thon rewards. During the event, all long swords will receive a performance boost based on monster difficulty, making them even more effective in battle. Special limited-time quests will require hunters to use a long sword to complete hunts, making this the perfect opportunity to forge and upgrade your long swords! Are you ready to refine your long sword skills, team up with hunters around the world, and take on these powerful monsters?

Mark your calendars because the April event lineup is here! We’ve got a Spring Festival event to call in the spring with an additional monster subspecies joining us, and various other events to look forward to. Don’t miss the fun this April!

Hunters, Recent reports show an increase in the activity of Nightshade Paolumu, Somnacanth, Radobaan, Legiana, Barioth, and Lagombi. In addition, Elder Dragon Interceptions are heating up with increased sightings of Kushala Daora! This is a great opportunity to upgrade your ice- and sleep-element weapons so we’ve prepared quests for you to slay these monsters. Rewards include gatherable materials and monster materials, with a Daora Horn and Wyvern Gem Shard up for grabs if you make it to the end! It’s time to sharpen your weapons and prepare for the hunt!

Hunters, Numbers of Tigrex, Rajang, and Black Diablos are on the rise! Reports also show that a brand-new type of driftstone can be obtained when slaying these monsters. This new driftstone may grant your armor the new Special Partbreaker skill, or the Fighting Spirit skill. What’s more, in celebration of the 1.5-year anniversary, there’s also a chance to obtain mysterious driftgems during the event! Now for some more exciting news: from this event onwards, you’ll be able to exchange driftstone shards for various types of mysterious driftgems, including those that have only been available in the past! Please note that the skills available from these driftgems have been adjusted (check the in-game info menu of each driftgem to see the list of potential skills). During the event, certain monsters are guaranteed to drop either a Mysterious Driftstone E or Mysterious Driftgem E (with a lower chance) as basic rewards. Don’t miss this chance to hunt large monsters, gather driftstones, and upgrade your equipment with driftsmelting!

Hunters, Thank you for playing Monster Hunter Now! We truly appreciate the feedback, requests, and thoughts you share with us through inquiries, the community forum, and social media. With this round of skill and balance adjustments, our main goal was to fine-tune weapon balance and address issues that each weapon type faced. We have also incorporated some of the feedback regarding controls and usability that we received through social media and in the community forum. Note: Skill adjustments were implemented ahead of the Season 5 release. You’ll find details on the major adjustments below. As we’ve mentioned before, our goal as a development team is to ensure that every hunter can fully enjoy the unique strengths of their chosen weapon, while also feeling inspired to try out different weapon types from time to time. If you haven’t used certain weapons before, we hope this update gives you a reason to give them a try! Thank you for your continued support of Monster Hunter Now and happy hunting! — The Development Team
