With the PC release of Monster Hunter World’s superb Iceborne expansion finally out of the way, Capcom is quickly playing catch-up to bring parity between the game on Steam and console. And tomorrow sees the developer making major headway, dropping a new PC update that finally adds its hilariously odd Resident Evil crossover, new monster Rajang and more.
From tomorrow, Iceborne players can go face-to-fist against huge, angry ape Rajang. The oversized primate (a thunder type monster if you’re wondering) first made its debut in 2006’s Monster Hunter 2 for PS2, and more recently popped up in the staggeringly generous Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate on 3DS and Switch. Rajang is a fast, aggressive, and frequently devastating opponent, and its Monster Hunter World makeover is absolutely terrifying. Oh, and its reworked theme tune is an absolute jazzy corker.
In order to fight Rajang, Iceborne players will need to converse with the Admiral in Seliana after beating the game and visiting the Guiding Lands at least once. And speaking of the Guiding Lands, tomorrow sees the addition of a new Volcanic Region.
