Monster Hunter Now unveils new Outbreak feature

Author : Thomas Apr 27,2025

If you're a fan of *Monster Hunter Now* and have been feeling that the game was a bit too easy lately, Niantic has listened to your feedback. They're rolling out a new feature called Monster Outbreak, set to be tested from April 26th to 27th, which is sure to challenge even the most seasoned hunters.

Currently in its testing phase, the Monster Outbreak feature allows players to experience and provide feedback on this exciting new addition. During an Outbreak, a massive number of a specific monster will appear in a designated area. You'll need to be within range and team up with other hunters (groups only!) to tackle these creatures.

The goal is straightforward: slay as many monsters as possible to reach a target of 100. By signing up on the roster, you can register your interest and earn an exclusive hunter medal. Successfully completing the Outbreak will reward you with various monster parts.

Culling monstersThe first monster targeted for an outbreak is the formidable eight-star Black Diablos. Throughout the event, you'll face only this dangerous creature. Monster Outbreaks are designed to shake up the usual gameplay and offer an extended challenge for those ready to dive in.

Don't forget to share your thoughts on the feature through the community forum or social media. Niantic is keen to learn if Monster Outbreaks add the excitement you're looking for in *Monster Hunter Now*.
