Monster Hunter World: Iceborne Post-Launch Free Update Announced; Angry Electric Ape Returns

We’re less than 3 days away from the release of Monster Hunter World: Iceborne and to everyone’s amazement, Capcom is still announcing new monsters. Heck, this announcement talks about an upcoming free update and the expansion isn’t even out yet!

Bravo, Capcom. Iceborne is definitely on its way to becoming one of the best DLCs ever made for a video game.

In a new 50-second trailer, Capcom re-introduces Monster Hunter fans to a very familiar but not very friendly face: Rajang, one of the most aggressive monsters in the Monster Hunter series.

Debuting in Monster Hunter 2, Rajang is sometimes called a “Super Saiyan monkey” and rightly so. When Rajang gets angry, it literally starts to glow gold and has electricity channeling through his body. For Monster Hunter newcomers who have never faced Rajang, get ready for a world of hurt.

The free update will arrive in October 2019 and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne comes out on 6 September 2019 for the PS4 and Xbox One. PC players are getting the expansion in January 2020.
