Monster Hunter x Witcher

The collaboration event between The Witcher franchise and Monster Hunter: World has officially begun. This event sees Geralt of Rivia, and other content from The Witcher universe, make their way over to Monster Hunter: World.

This limited time event is specifically for those that reached Hunter Rank 16 or higher. Take on the contract "Trouble in the Ancient Forest" to begin the event. This content is free to everyone that owns Monster Hunter: World on either the PlayStation 4 or Xbox. The event will hit the PC "at a later date."

‘Contract: Trouble in the Ancient Forest’ tasks the witcher with tracking down and dealing with a powerful force known as the Leshen. Defeating this mysterious creature will require the skills befitting a seasoned professional, and gamers will have at their disposal the White Wolf’s arsenal and abilities, including his silver sword and combat magic. Players will also engage in dialogues with other characters, influencing how the story unfolds through choices they make — a hallmark of The Witcher series.

Come February 15th, 1:00 AM CET, the most adept monster hunters (Hunter Rank 50 or above) will additionally be able to put their skills to the test in an extremely challenging multiplayer event, which will pit them against a much deadlier form of the Leshen. ‘Contract: Woodland Spirit’ will only be available for a limited time, until March 1st, 00:59 AM CET.

Completing the ‘Contract: Trouble in the Ancient Forest’ will earn players unique, Witcher-themed special items, resources for crafting Geralt’s armor and weapon set, a unique skin and weapon for the player’s Palico companion, as well as new gestures, titles, pose, and guild card background. Completing ‘Contract: Woodland Spirit’ will furthermore reward players with resources they’ll need to craft the armor and weapon set of Ciri — another iconic character from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
