Everything in Free Title Update 5 – Monster Hunter World
With the Appreciation Fest coming to an end in MHW, Capcom has decided to release a new Title Update (#5), for console players around the world. This Title Update features a number of new additions including the appearance of everyone’s favorite Witcher, Geralt. Below we will be taking you through everything in the Free Title Update 5 of Monster Hunter World.
Geralt Joins The Hunt (MHW x Witcher)
This collaboration between MHW and The Witcher is one I have been quite hyped for (and I hope you’ve been as well). Like other collaboration in the past (DMC, Megaman, etc.), you’ll will find a couple of new quests (with Witcher flair) as well as a number of new armor items and weapons. Here’s how to get everything pertaining to the MHW x Witcher.
MHW x The Witcher Questline
Everyone wants to be Geralt right? This badass monster slayer has gone through a portal and ended up in the world of MHW where killing monsters is basically a full time job. Like other collaborations there a number of quests to complete in this crossover event.
To begin these quests be sure you have the Free Title Update #5 downloaded on your console. Once you’ve done this, login to a session and make you way to the market. In the Tradeyard speak with the Third Fleet Felyne (just in front of the general seller). The Felyne will tell you to go back to the Research Base with it. Accept to begin the questline.
At the Research Base, speak with the Lynian Expert. The Lynian Expert will tell you of a mysterious creature (a Nekker) which has appeared. During a brief cutscene, Geralt will appear before the hunters. After the cutscene, make your way to the Ancient Forest. Note: when you depart for the Ancient Forest you are given a choice, to play as your hunter of play as Geralt. Since you can replay these mission I recommend being Geralt the first time around.
I don’t want to spoil too much about this questline, so I will just leave it at that, but it is definitely one of the better crossovers in my humble opinion.
MHW x The Witcher Armor and Weapons
For completing the MHW x The Witcher questline, you will receive a number of rewards which can be converted into Witcher Armor and Weapons. The Recipe for the new Witcher items:
