The first bit of cross-over content will see the "King of the Skies" Rathalos from Monster Hunter: world showing up as a battle in Final Fantasy XIV. This crossover will be included as part of the 4.36 update for the popular MMO.
The crossover arrives as part of the Patch 4.36 update, alongside the next installment of The Forbidden Land Eureka, titled The Pagos Expedition. Level 70 players in FINAL FANTASY XIV: Online who have completed the “Stormblood” main scenario quest may take on the mighty Rathalos in both Normal and Extreme versions of “The Great Hunt” Trial. While the Normal version will have eight players team up to face the legendary beast, the Extreme version will challenge four players to defeat the monster, with numerous unique mechanics included as a homage to Monster Hunter: World and its gameplay.
Square Enix says that there will be some special rewards available to those that participate in the collaboration event. The company also teased a bit of what to expect in the 4.4 patch coming further down the line. We also have some screenshots for the Monster Hunter content and the 4.36 update.
