The Iceborne beta kicks off first on PS4 on August 30 and runs through September 1. The beta will then come to Xbox One on September 2 and run through September 4. You can see the times for each session below. If you're interested in trying it out, you're able to download the beta client now from the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store.

PS4 Beta
Start: August 30 at 12:01 AM PT
End: September 1 at 11:59 PM PT

Xbox One Beta
Start: September 2 at 12:01 AM PT
End: September 4 at 11:59 PM PT


The new beta includes all three monsters that were available to hunt in previous sessions--Great Jagras (beginner), Banbaro (intermediate) and Tigrex (expert)--as well as a new quest to hunt Velkhana, Iceborne's cover monster, for the first time. Additionally, players will be able to try out all 14 different types of weapons in the game as well as some of Iceborne's new tools, such as the Clutch Claw.

The first time you complete each quest in the beta, you'll receive a special commendation pack for the full version of Iceborne. These packs include an assortment of consumables that will help you out while exploring Hoarfrost Reach, the new arctic region that serves as the expansion's setting.






If this final trailer for the expansion's release doesn't get you excited for the launch on Sept. 6th, then I don't know what will. Zinogre has been highly requested by veteran players of the series and while I'm still a newbie to the series with World being my first Monster Hunter title, I can see why the veterans are excited. This expansion is looking to have MUCH more content than the base game did and that's a great thing.
