Monster Hunter World is undoubtedly a title this generation needed. Its first expansion, Iceborne, has captured the unanimous consent of players, from series lovers to new levers, in its icy grip. With the refinement of the mechanics already present and a disheartening amount of content, Iceborne is able to keep us engaged for hours in search of materials, with a deep and satisfying endgame compartment.

Iceborne is basically what we expect from an expansion. It has a new region to explore, a lot of monsters and a consistent endgame. It's the perfect excuse to spend another hundred hours in one of the best games Capcom has offered in this generation.

Despite it being an expansion pack, Iceborne is pretty much another game built upon the many layers of Monster Hunter: World.

Iceborne is a wonderful sequel to one the best multiplayer titles of the 8th generation. In fact, Iceborne offers so much content and improvements over the original Monster Hunter World that it could have been a standalone title and not an expansion pack.

Monster Hunter World was already a great game but with Iceborne, Capcom has made it even better. It is easily one of the best expansions released for a game this generation and worthy enough to be considered on its own.

Basically, if you love Monster Hunter World, this is more Monster Hunter World. If you don’t like Monster Hunter World, this isn’t going to change your mind. As someone who falls in the former category, I am so happy for this expansion and I can’t wait to pour even more hours into this game than I already have.

A great expansion that left an impression of an entirely new sequel to the game due to its wealth in content. The developers really pushed the limits of the available options and created new mechanics to improve on the base game. If you loved the hunt before, this will be your opportunity to jump back in.

Monster Hunter World was already a great game in all respects, but Iceborne is undoubtedly the spearhead that consecrates Capcom's adventure, focusing everything on numbers, quality and covering the few flaws left to the basic experience in order to perfect it.

Monster Hunter World Iceborne is an expansion by the book. There is tons of new content, including exciting new monsters, weapon and armor sets. The Clutch Claw and new attacks add to the gameplay and are really needed for the challenging Master Rank quests. On PC the new areas look even better, including support for widescreen. We still recommend however to avoid mouse and keyboard. If Capcom can keep this quality up, the franchise has a bright future ahead.
