This news comes by way of a tweet from the official Monster Hunter World Twitter 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 if MHW fans 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 the PC release slated 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 for Monster Hunter World fans 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 many MHW fans on Xbox One would simply prefer to receive a matchmaking fix instead.
Monster Hunter World is available now for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and will launch at some point in fall 2018 for PC.
