As we head into the weekend if you’re a devout Monster Hunter fanatic who won’t be able to get to their PC or console for Rise you can still get your fix of creature-slaying action. That’s because Niantic’s hit AR creature-hunter is out now with its latest update as season 5, the Blossoming Blade arrives.
First off, who are the headliners joining the roster of monsters in Monster Hunter Now? Well, keep your eyes peeled because Glavenus and Arzuros are both set to debut as they roam the field. But be sure to tick off your season 5 Urgent Quests to unlock them on the field, and hop into Hunt-a-thons for a chance to more frequently encounter the elusive Glavenus.
Fortunately, if you’re jumping into the hunt you’ll be pleased to know that a new suite of buffs and balances are on the cards. The Sword & Shield combo is getting an attack boost, while its movements have been refined to give you better combat abilities. Check out the full blog for more info!
