Monster Hunter World: Iceborne Title Update 4 Delayed Due to COVID-19

Monster Hunter World: Iceborne‘s Title Update 4 was delayed due to COVID-19. Capcom shared an important message about the development of future Title Updates.

Check out the message from Capcom below:

Unfortunately, coronavirus (COVID-19) related impacts on productions have made it necessary to postpone the release of the fourth free title update for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. Voice over production for the Italian, Spanish, and French language versions have also been affected, and will be replaced with simplified recordings.

We would like to apologize to all of our fans eagerly awaiting Alatreon’s arrival in the New World, and will provide updates once we have new information to share.

Thank you very much for your continued support and patience. From all the development team at Capcom – happy hunting and stay safe!
