How it Plays

Like World, Iceborne will plunge you into an open world where monsters won’t sit back and be hunted. Every fight is a boss fight. The monster controls the flow of combat, pushing you and your party to the limit — and each monster is wildly different. It’s crush-or-be-crushed with beasts as mobile as these!

Choose your hunter based on their unique weapon and playstyle. Pick which infamous monster you’ll be hunting across the ice. Track the creature in a quest driven by your decisions, avoiding pitfalls and collecting bonus resources to help you in the challenges ahead.

Then dive into heart-pounding, card-driven combat where teamwork, positioning, and stamina are key, targeting the monster parts you need for the equipment you want to craft — without getting wiped out!

• Play multiple epic campaigns with different combos of hunters, monsters, and equipment. The more monsters you slay, the better the weapons you can craft, the bigger the monsters you can hunt!
• Short on time? Every monster comes with single session arena quests, so you can plunge right into combat
• Want to play solo? No problem! Monster Hunter World Iceborne: The Board Game includes solo mode
