Hunters, Season 5: The Blossoming Blade Arrives!

Monster Hunter Now's Season 5: The Blossoming Blade is almost here! Niantic has unveiled all the exciting additions coming March 6th, 2025. This season promises new challenges, monsters, weapons, and a revamped Season Pass.

Pre-Season Sneak Peek:

Even before Season 5 begins, players can encounter the Chatacabra starting February 28th, marking its debut before its appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. The season's official launch will also introduce Glavenus and Arzuros to the hunt.

Weapon Enhancements:

Expect significant weapon balance adjustments designed to enhance the viability and enjoyment of all weapon types. The Sword & Shield receives a buff for easier tail targeting, while the Perfect Rush Combo (SP) will reward precise timing with amplified power and more satisfying combos. The Guard skill is also receiving a much-needed upgrade, with higher skill levels now providing noticeable damage reduction when blocking. Further details on these and other tweaks will be included in the full patch notes on March 6th.

More Season 5 Features:

A persistent inventory problem is addressed with the introduction of an Item Box Expansion, available as a Supply Item, providing an additional 250 inventory slots.

Celebrating Monster Hunter Now's 1.5-Year Anniversary on March 17th, a new material trading system will launch. Hunters can exchange special materials earned through hunts and events for valuable rewards, including Item Box Expansions, Weapon and Armor Refining Parts, and Wyvern Gem Shards.
