Capcom announced Monster Hunter World will be getting its first expansion pack later this year. Entitled “Iceborne,” PlayStation 4 and Xbox One owners will get their chance to explore the new snow covered biome on September 6th. Just like previous PC content, PC owners will have to wait until this winter (spring in southern hemisphere regions)
for “Iceborne.”

“Iceborne” is a full blown expansion containing a new biome, a variety of new monster, the Master Rank difficulty, a new story line, and quality of life enhancements. The expansion’s story is set shortly after the events of the main game, where the hunters have just discovered icy Hoarfrost Reach. The new area will start out small, but will eventually grow into the largest zone in the game as players progress through the story.

New gameplay changes are coming with “Iceborne.” Some are quality of life changes like the ability to use the Slinger with a weapon equipped. Others add more content, such as new combos for all 14 weapon types.

“Iceborne” will be priced at $39.99 USD as a DLC. A digital deluxe version containing the expansion and exclusive cosmetics will be priced at $49.99 USD. A new Monster Hunter World Master Edition will also launch, bundling the game and the “Iceborne” expansion for $59.99 USD. This will be the only pack available at physical retailers.

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint Announced for October 4

After a bit of a leaking problem Ubisoft and Ubisoft Paris have announced that they will be bringing Ghost Recon: Breakpoint to the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on October 4th with those who pre-order the game gaining access to a beta that will be held sometime before release.

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint will be set somewhere in the South Pacific on the remote Auroa Archipelago, a vast land of diverse biomes that range from lush rainforests to snowy peaks. Now, it’s home to Skell Technology, an enigmatic technology giant. Initially interested in a remote testing site for its autonomous drones, the Silicon Valley company eventually turned Auroa into its “World 2.0,” a high-tech, high-security utopia of sustainable eco-cities and robotics research.

The main enemy this time will be The Wolves, perhaps the deadliest enemy yet as they are former Ghosts who have betrayed their country. Led by the charismatic Colonel Cole D. Walker they have taken control of Auroa for an unknown purpose. Now in control of Auroa’s powerful drone technology The Wolves and their allies will hunt you mercilessly across Auroa.

For those who want a quick look at what Ghost Recon: Breakpoint will have to offer you can check out both the announcement trailer and over thirteen minutes of gameplay footage below.
