Monster Hunter World is opening its arms once more to usher in a fresh selection of cross-franchise collaborations, this time for its recently released Iceborne expansion. From tomorrow, Resident Evil 2 gets the crossover treatment on Xbox One and PS4, while Horizon Zero Dawn’s second collaboration event comes to PS4 on 21st November. You’ll find more on each below.
Iceborne’s Resident Evil 2 event runs from tomorrow, 8th November, until 6th December in the UK, and sets hunters the task of defeating a Blackveil Vaal Hazak as part of the RE: Return of the Bioweapon quest (available to anyone at MR20 or above). The event monster variant, explains Capcom, releases special spores that require the use of Green and Red Herbs to counter.
By defeating the Elder Dragon, hunters can acquire two new gestures – a zombie shuffle and damage-dealing zombie bite – alongside the materials needed to craft new Full Armour Sets inspired by Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield. It’s also possible to craft three Raccoon-City-themed pendants that can be used to decorate weapons.
