Monster Hunter: World Iceborne Producer Teases News that Will Please Fans; Shows Gameplay Aplenty

Capcom showcased plenty of gameplay of Monster Hunter: World’s expansion Iceborne and shared an interesting tease.

The gameplay was shown on stage at PAX West in Seattle, kindly recorded by YouTube user Tom.

We get to see a hunt for Acidic Glavenus and even a random fight against Tigrex. 

At the control is Community Manager Yuri Araujo, showing off his prowess. 

You can see it below.

The interesting part comes near the end, when Producer Ryozo Tsujimoto takes the stage for a final message. 

It’s easy to miss because the interpreter actually gave a slightly more vague translation of what Tsujimoto-san said (which isn’t really his fault, mind you. Interpreting on the fly in such a noisy environment is extremely challenging), but we hear that while the expansion is coming out next week, Capcom is preparing to deliver information that will surely please the fans, and he encourages us to stay tuned for it before Iceborne’s launch.

No further hint was provided, but looks like we have one final reveal to look forward to next week.

You can also enjoy the first look at the Nargacuga, Beotodus, Direwolf, Black Diablos, Odogaron and Girros, Rathian,  Legiana, Rathalos, Tobi-Kadachi, Shrieking Legiana, Tigrex, Jagras,Kulu-Ya-Ku, and Tzitzi-Ya-Ku armor sets for a glimpse on the gear you’ll be able to collect.

On top of that, we recently got a pair of trailers showcasing the new home base and Glavenus, one focusing on Nargacuga and its origins, another featuring Tigrex, some brand new gameplay featuring Glavenus, a trailer showing off Acidic Glavenus in action and another taking a look at monster subspecies in general. You can also learn more about the topic with the info shared at San Diego Comic-Con.
