How to Start Monster Hunter World Iceborne
The long-awaited Monster Hunter World: Iceborne expansion is here. It promises thrilling adventures with new monsters, armors, and locales. But first, a crucial step: conquer the main Monster Hunter: World story. If you’ve done that, follow these steps to start Monster Hunter World: Iceborne and begin your exciting journey.
1. Speak to Feisty Fiver in Astera
Upon launching Monster Hunter World with the Iceborne expansion installed, you’ll immediately come across a tutorial screen. This tutorial highlights a new investigation that reports a Legiana sighting in the Ancient Forest, acting as your entry point into Iceborne. To initiate it, just approach the Feisty Fiver, located to the left of the Tradeyard quest board in Astera, and begin the quest.
2. Complete the Investigation in Ancient Forest
Your next destination is the Ancient Forest, where the investigation unfolds. Here, you’ll follow the Handler as the story progresses through a series of cutscenes. These cinematic moments culminate in the unlocking of the new Master Rank difficulty. Once you’ve wrapped up this investigation, you’ll find yourself back in Astera.
3. Speak with the Commander
In Astera, make your way to the Commander and engage in a conversation with him. This pivotal interaction sets the stage for your journey into the heart of Iceborne’s chilling expansion. To embark on your journey, accept the invitation to board the Third Fleet’s airship, which will transport you to the new DLC area known as “Hoarfrost Reach.”
4. Hunt Beotodus and Reach Seliana
Your initial objective in Hoarfrost Reach is to track down and face Beotodus. Completing this hunt marks the successful completion of your first Iceborne quest. Once you’ve completed that step, you’ll advance to Seliana, the dynamic new hub area where your Iceborne adventures will truly soar to new heights.
Having completed these steps, you are now fully equipped and prepared to embark on your epic adventure in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. Traverse the frozen landscapes, confront formidable monsters, and craft powerful new gear as you continue your hunting odyssey.
If you haven’t already claimed them, several DLC items are associated with Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. These items alter your hunter’s appearance, customize their Seliana residence, and personalize their gaming consoles.
