If you’re a foul individual, you costume your cat up for Halloween. If you’re completely rad? You transmogrify your pet into Mega Man – it’s enjoyable for the entire household in Monster Hunter: World‘s subsequent occasion. As listed on the official event page, this October 19th marks the arrival of the primary foolish crossover occasion for the PC Monster Hunter: World. By combating your approach by a brand new occasion quest (a toughie, with a enjoyable twist), you’ll gather the components required to rework your Palico right into a goofy pseudo-8-bit Mega Man. Below, a clip of Mega Mog in motion.
While coincidental, the timing of this occasion works even higher on PC than it did on consoles – Mega Man 11 simply launched, and the blue bomber hopefully has a number of extra followers. The coronary heart of the Mega Man occasion is a brand new quest – “A Rush Of Blood” – named after Mega Man’s massive pink (robotic) canine buddy. Unfortunately, the one massive pink canine in Monster Hunter: World are Odogarons, and also you’ve received to struggle two without delay. Fortunately certainly one of them is just pet sized, however even that one can hit like a truck. It’s a tricky struggle, however win a number of occasions and also you’ll be capable to commerce your cat in for a robotic baby.
As an additional cute element, your selection of weapon alters the music within the occasion quest. This kinda stuff is a style of the issues to come back, with Street Fighter and Devil May Cry time-limited crossovers on the horizon, plus (finally) the everlasting arrival of Behemoth from Final Fantasy 14. All of that is blended in with the usually scheduled occasion quests and new monsters. I’m curious to see what Capcom plan on doing as soon as we’ve exhausted all their console-made content material for the game. Personally, I’m hoping for a G-Rank growth – one thing I’d be keen to pay for – however time will inform.
The Mega Man crossover occasion begins on October 19th, simply as the current Autumn Harvest Fest event ends, so get your levelling carried out quick if you’d like your Halloween goodies to stay. Want to see what else is arising? Check out Dave’s guide to the incoming monsters here.
