Monster Hunter Now’s Thrilling New Season: The Blossoming Blade
Get ready for an exciting adventure! Monster Hunter Now is launching its highly anticipated Season 5: The Blossoming Blade. This big update brings lots of fun features, new monsters, and game improvements that promise to make your hunting experience even better. Whether you’re a seasoned hunter or just starting out, this season has surprises for everyone.
New Monsters and Challenges
Meet the New Monsters
Season 5 introduces three tough monsters: Chatacabra, Glavenus, and Arzuros. Chatacabra arrived on February 28th, and Glavenus and Arzuros will join the hunt when the season starts[1][2]. Glavenus is a fiery monster known for its strength, while Arzuros is a unique challenge with no elemental weaknesses[1]. These new monsters will test your hunting skills and strategies.
Monster Unlock Quests
Don’t worry, your favorite monsters won’t disappear! Season 5 has monster unlock quests. Complete these quests to make past monsters appear again in the field and trackable in the Monster Tracker, with some exceptions[1]. This way, you can keep enjoying a variety of monsters throughout the season.
Gameplay Enhancements
Weapon Balancing and Skill Updates
The game developers have worked on making weapons more balanced and listened to player feedback. The Sword & Shield is now easier to use to target breakable parts like tails. The Perfect Rush Combo (SP) requires precise taps for better performance, making gameplay more active[1][2]. The Guard skill now provides more damage reduction as skill levels increase[2].
New Skills and Features
Season 5 brings new skills like Shared Sword, which boosts attack power during group hunts, and Raw Power, which increases attack power but reduces weapon affinity[1]. You can also trade materials for rewards with a new system, giving you more control over your resources[2].
Seasonal Items and Pass
More Room for Items and a New Season Pass
With all the new items and rewards, your inventory will need more space. An Item Box Expansion adds 250 slots to your inventory[2]. A new Season Pass for Season 5 offers exclusive rewards, but you won’t be able to progress your Season 4 tier once the new season starts[1][2].
An Exciting Season Awaits
The Blossoming Blade is more than just an update; it’s a transformation! With new monsters, better gameplay, and exciting features, Monster Hunter Now is ready to captivate both new and veteran players. As the season unfolds, you’ll face fresh challenges, explore new strategies, and enjoy a more balanced and engaging experience. Whether you’re new to Monster Hunter or returning for another thrilling season, The Blossoming Blade promises an unforgettable journey.
