Zinogre is one of the new creatures coming to "Monster Hunter Now" as part of the Fulminations in the Frost season. (Niantic)
Since its release, “Monster Hunter Now” has become one of my go-to mobile games along with “Marvel Snap” and “Pokemon Go.” The title nails the action-oriented nature of the gameplay while compressing it into battles that last less than three minutes.
It’s the first Niantic titles other than “Pokemon Go” that has the stickiness that’s needed for a mobile game to survive long term. Now, the title enters its latest phase with a new season called Fulminations in the Frost. As part of the new content drop, Niantic is release four new monsters to the mix: Zinogre, Banbaro, Barioth and Radobaan.
To help players out, Niantic is also adding two new weapons: the Lance and the Dual Blades. The former has the extended reach for creatures that seem to be just out of rush after attacking while the Dual Blades focuses on close-in encounters. Along with the new monsters, players should expect new armor sets and weapons.
In addition to the new season, Fulminations in the Frost will include rebalancing and other tweaks to the gameplay experience. One of those is an increase to the maximum number of items that one can hold. The new season will begin later today.
