Details on the expansion will be announced this summer. The update will add Arch-tempered Arkveld, 10-star Arch Tempered Monsters, and unique new Event Quests, as well as a collaboration event with Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, the weapon and pendant designs from an official design contest, and an event celebrating the game’s first anniversary.
