Monster Hunter World’s Sakura Outfit Quest Starts May 3rd

Capcom is releasing yet another Street Fighter 5 crossover event quest for Monster Hunter World. The “Empress in Full Bloom” quest will start on May 3rd at 5 PM PT/8 PM ET and comprises of three parts.

The objective is to slay a Pink Rathian in the Arena with the reward being an armour set that transforms the player into Street Fighter 5’s Sakura Kasugano. This is her new updated look and not Street Fighter Alpha’s schoolgirl outfit. Ending on May 10th, the quest requires Hunter Rank 12 or higher.

If past quests are any indication, this will need to be run a few times for the materials required in crafting the outfit. Perhaps more importantly, the Kulve Taroth Siege quest will also be ending on May 3rd. If you haven’t had a chance to run the quest and garner the new Melded Weapons or craft Kulve Taroth’s armour, now would be a good time to get on that.
