Can't wait. I hope they announce some PS5/Xbox Series X upgrades and possibly cross-play/saves.

Man MHW has been a trip. My favorite title in the series and one of the best games this gen easily.

Any idea what's coming? It's not Fatalis is it? I'd imagine they'd save that for the next game thats coming.

I haven't touched MHW since before Kulve Taroth. What's the amount of content like now since then? Is it absurdly difficult? Can it be done solo? I'm not much for group hunts and I'm probably super rusty.

I didn't even know that there would be another update and uninstalled it a few days ago after tons of failed alatreon attempts. Time to reinstall I guess.

I know it would be too much, but it would be SOOO nice to end with Magalas, Seregios, Valstrax and the Fatalis trio.

There has been a lot of laughs, tries and screams with this game and its very sad to see the content coming to an end, but i am still ready to cart to Fatalis

Iceborne basegame is perfectly serviceable, but post-game monsters get pretty difficult. Alatreon in particular has been a wall for tons of folks.

Been thinking of getting back into this. I stopped after the Kulve Taroth update.

Intended to get Iceborne but the same shitty PC issues made me not want to support the game at that time. Wonder if those have been ironed out.

Seems a little early for the final battle, maybe the final monster? I assume they would still release Arch Tempered Velkhana and Shara Ishavalda though to officially wrap things up (Maybe even Arch Tempered Safi'Jiva and Alatreon as well, if Arch Tempered Alatreon could even be a thing)

Game of the generation contender. I can't wait to see the new one on next gen.

Is it dropping on the 28th or are they streaming and talking about the last update for the game?

Same. World 2 is probably years and years away (not expecting it before 2023 tbh). And having a ps5 and xsx enhancement would be nice. Even if its only a res bump and framerate bump.

If im not mistaken the game already runs all grahpics modes in an uncapped framerate (even the favor resolution one) so the framerare shouldnt be all that hard to do.

This was one of the best games this gen. Really found a great balance between updates and adding to gameplay etc. hope to see the sequel on next gen announced at some point.

I'm hoping they seriously retool the engine so we have semi decent image IQ. As much as I love the game, its a serious mess.

So I played through and beat the initial campaign back on release had a great time with it. I'd like to give iceborne a go but if I jump in with iceborne am I going to just get destroyed over and over because I've forgotten how to play and my skills have eroded? Or does the difficulty in iceborne ramp up gently? I don't really want to go through the whole campaign again just to get my skills back up to speed.

Seriously, a hand of applause for MHW and IB. I had never played a MH game before and it became my favorite coop game of the generation.

Difficulty ramps up, you're starting a new rank so you'll be fighting low-tier monsters like Great Jagras, Pukei, Jyuratodus, etc. at the start. They just have more health and do a little more damage than before.

Please do something to make Gold Crown hunting more manageable. I am seriously losing my hair over this. The base was already pretty bad about this but Iceborne amps up the craziness even more.
