Shortly following its release,Monster Hunter Worldmanaged to have an incredibly successful launch weekend, with Capcom reporting thatmore than 5 million units were shippedover the course of just three days. Now, in order to commemorate the achievement and thank the action role-playing game’s fans for making it possible, the publisher and developer has announced that all players will receive a free Celebration Pack.
This news comes by way of a tweet from the officialMonster Hunter WorldTwitter account, as Capcom has stated that the free Celebration Pack is intended to be “a warm welcome to the New World” for newcomers and veteran hunters alike. As seen in the image below, it appears as ifMHWfans will be able to net themselves a potion, a handful of different sacs, and a glittering steel egg in the Celebration Pack.
According to Capcom, both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players will receive the free Celebration Pack, but the publisher and developer has stated that it’s rolling the content out in waves. With this being the case, those who haven’t gotten theirs will need to check back in on the game in the next few days to see if it has been received. And with thePC releaseslated for later this fall, there’s no telling whether or not the Celebration Pack will be extended to those beyond the console versions in the future.
Taking all of this into consideration, Capcom’s decision to offer up some free in-game items forMonster Hunter Worldfans will surely be received well by the action role-playing game’s player base. But even though the gift is decidedly nifty, it’s safe to presume that manyMHWfans on Xbox One would simply prefer to receive amatchmaking fixinstead.
Monster Hunter Worldis available now for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and will launch at some point in fall 2018 for PC.
