Ahead of the Monster Hunter World: Iceborne massive expansion’s global console release on September 6th, Capcom has confirmed details about upcoming beta sessions, which offer four quest options for players to try at home. The PlayStation 4 beta will be available for all PS4 users from 08:00 BST on Friday, August 30th through 07:59 BST on Monday, September 2nd.
Following that, a beta for Xbox One will be available from 08:00 BST on Monday, September 2nd through 7:59 am BST on Thursday, September 5th. Preload options will be available a couple of days before each beta period begins. The Monster Hunter: World base game is not required to participate in the Iceborne beta sessions.
These pre-launch beta sessions for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne are cooler than ever with the addition of a frosty new challenge. Alongside the previously available Great Jagras (Beginner), Banbaro (Intermediate) and Tigrex (Expert) quests, players will be able to battle against the game’s mythical flagship monster Velkhana for the first time. Watch out though, this Elder Dragon’s icy breath is dangerous and offers a bone-chilling fight for even the fiercest of hunters.
Breakdown of the Monster Hunter World: Iceborne beta
Similar to previous beta sessions, hunters can test out all 14 weapon types in any of the four quests and the training area. The weapons include the new Iceborne features, plus the new Slinger tool options such as the Clutch Claw grapple mechanic.
Upon completing each quest for the first time, hunters can earn a total of four special commendation packs containing helpful consumable items that will be available to use in the full version of the Iceborne expansion when it releases. So, pack those Hot Drinks and join a hunting party to clear these quests.
