Monster Hunter Now is gearing up for an exciting launch of Season 5: The Blossoming Blade, and Niantic has shared all the thrilling details. Set to kick off on March 6th, 2025, this season promises new challenges, weapons, a Season Pass, and a host of new monsters to battle.
Getting Ready for Monster Hunter Now Season 5
Before the official launch of Season 5, players can look forward to a special treat with the arrival of Chatacabra on February 28th. This marks its grand debut ahead of its first-ever appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. When the season officially starts, Glavenus and Arzuros will also join the fray, adding to the excitement.
Weapons in Monster Hunter Now are receiving balance tweaks to enhance their viability and fun factor. The Sword & Shield is getting a significant buff, making it easier to target breakable parts like tails. Additionally, the Perfect Rush Combo (SP) will now reward well-timed taps with stronger performance, leading to more satisfying combos.
The Guard skill is also getting a substantial boost. Previously, leveling up Guard didn't make much of a difference, but now, higher skill levels will effectively reduce damage taken when blocking. More details on these tweaks and other updates will be revealed in the full patch notes on March 6th.
And There Is More!
For those struggling with inventory management, Monster Hunter Now Season 5 brings fantastic news. An Item Box Expansion will be available as a Supply Item, offering an additional 250 slots to help manage your gear and resources more efficiently.
As part of Monster Hunter Now’s 1.5-Year Anniversary on March 17th, a new feature will be introduced, allowing players to trade special materials earned from hunts and events for some incredible rewards. Look forward to acquiring Item Box Expansions, Weapon Refining Parts, Armor Refining Parts, and Wyvern Gem Shards through this new system.
So, gear up and prepare for the new season by downloading the game from the Google Play Store.
