Monster Hunter World Iceborne Master Edition includes the original Monster Hunter World
Massive Volume of Content - Iceborne builds on every aspect of World with a wealth of new challenges and surprises
New Story Introduces Hoarfrost Reach Locale - Picking up the plot from World, hunters will travel to a snow-covered terrain which progressively expands with the story, eventually becoming the largest region in World so far
New and Returning Monsters - The new locale is home to brand new frigid climate foes as well as returning fan favorites joining the Monster Hunter: World lineup. Leading the pack is the new flagship monster Velkhana, an elder dragon with powerful ice attacks that is a pervasive threat in the new story
Master Rank difficulty option - A brand-new quest tier above High Rank that makes new and existing monsters more ferocious than ever
Added Gameplay Mechanics Deepen Combat - Options for the Slinger tool have been added including a Clutch Claw grapple move and Flinch Shot that stuns monsters. With the new ability to use the Slinger while the main weapon is drawn, new strategies and opportunities are available for combat
Expanded Weapon Options - Each of the 14 weapon types will get new combos and new elements, offering new depth to master
New Gear and Items to Craft - Added monsters means hunters will have new materials from which to craft equipment as they take on new quests and challenges throughout Hoarfrost Reach
While Iceborne players will be able to enjoy some of the gameplay options such as the Slinger and weapon updates right away, they must have completed the main story through Hunter Rank 16 in order to access the new Iceborne
