All the monsters, all the time.
As Monster Hunter: World lumbers on to PC this weekend, there’s been a collaboration with Final Fantasy XIV announced, bring the iconic beast Rathalos into the staggeringly popular MMO.
A new patch for Final Fantasy 14 has also been released; 4.36, which introduces the next chapter in The Forbidden Land Eureka series: The Pagos Expedition. Players will be able to explore new areas, strengthen their Eureka weapons even more, and get tons of rewards.
You’ll be able to challenge this new foe in Normal or Extreme difficulty modes, to win numerous in game rewards, and players who are both level 70 and have completed Stormblood can immediately go and do “The New King of the Block,†quest to face Rathalos in The Great Hunt trial. This is an eight player battle with mechanics inspired by Monster Hunter: World, so expect a tough fight. If you want an even tougher battle, on the other hand, there’s The Great Hunt (Extreme), a four player version of the trial with even more obstacles thrown in.
If you manage to slay the beast, these are the rewards you’ll get:
- Rathalos Armor Set – armor sets inspired by Rathalos
