As we approach the weekend, dedicated Monster Hunter fans who can't access their PC or console for Monster Hunter Rise can still satisfy their craving for creature-slaying action. Niantic's popular AR game, Monster Hunter Now, has rolled out its latest update with the arrival of Season 5: The Blossoming Blade.

The update introduces new monsters to the fray, with Glavenus and Arzuros making their debut. To encounter these formidable beasts, players must complete Season 5 Urgent Quests. For those eager to face Glavenus more often, participating in Hunt-a-thons is the way to go.

Alongside new monsters, the update brings a host of buffs and balance changes. The Sword & Shield combo is receiving an attack boost, and its movements have been refined to enhance combat capabilities. Be sure to check out the full blog for detailed information on these changes!

For those who missed out on previous seasons, the introduction of Monster Unlock Quests is a game-changer. These quests offer a chance to unlock encounters with monsters from past seasons, ensuring no one misses out on the action.

Additionally, the update introduces new skills such as Shared Sword and Raw Power, enhancing your hunting strategies. The upcoming Event Exchange Hub, set to launch on March 17th, promises even more excitement and opportunities for players to engage with the game.
