Get ready for Monster Hunter Now's Season 5: The Blossoming Blade, launching March 6th, 2025! Niantic has unveiled exciting new additions, including challenging monsters, powerful weapons, and a revamped Season Pass.
Pre-Season Sneak Peek: February 28th
Before the main event, a special treat awaits! The Chatacabra makes its debut on February 28th, arriving in Monster Hunter Now before its appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. And when Season 5 officially launches, prepare to face Glavenus and Arzuros!
Weapon Enhancements and Balance Tweaks
This season brings significant weapon balance adjustments, aiming to make every weapon type more enjoyable and effective. The Sword & Shield receives a buff, improving its ability to target weak points like tails. The Perfect Rush Combo (SP) will now reward precise timing with amplified power, creating more satisfying and impactful combos.
The Guard skill also gets a much-needed upgrade. Previously offering minimal benefit, higher Guard skill levels will now noticeably reduce damage taken while blocking. More detailed balance changes will be revealed in the full patch notes on March 6th.
