been a few months!
AT Kulve Taroth is currently going on, with some behavioural tweaks and a new phase that gives new "rainbow" (even though it's just sky blue) raid drops labelled as Incandescent Weapons, which may get appraised into new Kjarr variants of the same ol KT weapons. The new Gamma armor has a lot of nice skills on it though, unfortunate that it takes so much materials...
coming up next month is the Appreciation Festival to celebrate the launch anniversary, rocking a snazzy suit (and it looks like the cosmetic armor might be the same this time?) as well as advertising the return of past Festival quests
Also coming up in the spring months is the Witcher 3 crossover event, the Monster Hunter series 15th anniversary, and AT Nergigante, then no more major content until.....
the Iceborne expansion comes out next fall! who's excited for nargacuga? lagombi? bologna? jam cloth? i find it kinda neat that the snow biome is an endgame/postgame area now instead of like, second or third. I wonder if they'll add the crafting ingredient for hot drinks to like, wildspire wastes instead of just the biome it's required in (like the chillshrooms!!)? But yeah, new biomes (plural!), monsters, equipment (oh boy here come more mantles i'll never use), "moves" (might just be gestures), and a new quest ranks. continues the story past the end of the base game.
and as for PC, they get the FFXIV crossover today and AT Teostra in a couple weeks. they still have a bit to catch up on, but it seems to be a nice pace. Iceborne is coming to PC as well, but it's unclear if they plan a simultaneous release with consoles.
