If you had hoped to cuddle up with a blanket, cocoa, and Palico this Christmas in Monster Hunter: World‘s Iceborne expansion, bad news: it won’t be out on PC by then. Capcom yesterday narrowed our “winter” launch window all the way down to “January 2020”. Iceborne’s console launch will probably be on September sixth so pllllrbbb. This is a shorter delay than we waited for the bottom game’s PC launch, 4 months fairly than six, however it’s nonetheless on the disappointing facet of the Christmas holidays.
The disappointing-but-unsurprising information got here on Twitter. I suppose technically the Twelve Days of Christmas finish on January fifth so “January” may technically nonetheless imply Christmastime however, even when it did, it’s not the identical until you’re off work and in your sixth straight day of lounging round in your pants consuming Terry’s Chocolate Oranges.
Capcom had defined the bottom game’s PC delay as them wanting wanting additional time to “try and get the PC version as good as possible.” Now it’s right here and fairly deece, it’s a disgrace to nonetheless be ready. We’ve been behind all alongside. Special occasions like the Witcher crossover have come to PC months later, and I wouldn’t be shocked to see that sample proceed with something particular Iceborne does.
Our Brendy had a wee play of Iceborne at E3, poking spherical its frozen new island and killing a monster, the monster. For extra on the enlargement, see its site and our guidefolk’s Iceborne roundup gathering drips and drabs of information.
Iceborne is coming to Steam a while in January.
