Capcom’s second major PC update for Monster Hunter World has gone live. It brings the Autumn Harvest Fest to the platform, making this the first seasonal event for the PC version since it launched.
Along with new quests like Up at the Crack of Dawn and Every Hunter’s Dream (which grants the Wyvern Ignition Impact Greatsword upon completing it enough times), Vespoid Infestation will also be available.
Players will also receive a free character edit voucher that lets them change the appearance and gender of their Hunter. Keep in mind that this can only be used once per character and won’t allow for changing your Hunter’s name or the name and appearance of your Palico. You can also pick up the Handler’s Mischievous Dress, new sticker sets, new gestures, and new hairstyles, which will be available on the Steam store when the event goes live.
The Autumn Harvest Fest will end on October 18th at 11:59 PM UTC for PC.
