Monster Hunter: World Iceborne gameplay trailer reveals new elder dragon, Velkhana

Looking forward to this expansion.  MHW has my most played hours out of all my games.

Capcom’s next major expansion for Monster Hunter: World, known as Iceborne, is coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on Sept. 6, the developer announced on Thursday during a livestream. The Windows PC version will come to Steam sometime this winter.

Monster Hunter: World Iceborne will be a “massive” expansion, Capcom said, and will feature a new story, a new locale, and new monsters to battle. Iceborne will also bring back some fan favorites from previous games, including Nargacuga from Monster Hunter Freedom Unite.

Iceborne will send players to snowy Hoarfrost Reach, said to be the largest region in Monster Hunter: World so far. Players will have to keep themselves warm in the frigid new landmass by drinking hot drinks and bathing in natural hot springs to stave off the cold’s deleterious effects. In Hoarfrost Reach, players will encounter new creatures, like Popo, Stonebill, and Rime Beetles, insects that roll up balls of snow like dung beetles. Players can also hitch a ride on Cortos, winged creatures that you can use to get around.
