Capcom plan to broadcasta new video dev diaryabout the update on Friday, July 3rd at 1pm (5am Pacific). While Capcom have said they have more Iceborne updates with new monsters planned beyond this, they haven’t yet announced details on any of them. Maybe we’ll hear more about the future beyond Alatreon on Friday too.

Title Update 4 should be a bit less than once expected, mind. When Capcom announced the delay for Title Update 4in April, they said “Voice over production for the Italian, Spanish and French language versions have also been affected, and will be replaced with simplified recordings.”

Do remember that the PC and console versions of MHW have finally achieved patch parity, as of April’s update v13.50, so we should all be hunting Alatreon at the same time.
