Monster Hunter World Is Getting Special Event Reruns To Celebrate Iceborne's Aniversary

Monster Hunter World is getting reruns of special events to celebrate the one year anniversary of the games' Iceborne expansion. The festivals, which include the Holiday Joy Fest, Grand Appreciation Fest, and Full Bloom Fest, will be held between the end of August and the end of September.

These events include special festive decor, new food platters, new armor and weapon pendants, and special event quests. The Holiday Joy Fest will be running from August 21 to September 3, the Grand Appreciation Fest from September 4 to September 17, and Full Bloom Fest from September 18 to September 30.

The first upcoming event, the Holiday Joy Fest, lets you unlock special gear like the Oolong Armor, Lucky Crimson Tiger Pendant, and a Shishi-mai outfit for your Palico.

A special variant monster, the Frostfang Barioth, is also getting added to Monster Hunter World for a limited-time quest. Players can fight the beast and earn rewards and armor from now until August 19.

"Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is at its best when you’re fighting tooth and nail against something that you know could crush you within its teeth in a second, even though this might feel like it came at the expense of a more interesting narrative," reads GameSpot's review. "Nothing is quite as good as the biting chill cutting through the furs of your armor, the shrill cry of your Palico as it comes to your aid, and the wind roaring in your ears as you latch onto a beast’s flank and climb up its side while it bucks and roars."
