Monster Hunter Now will soon welcome the legendary elder dragon Kirin this Lunar New Year

by Joshua Feb 26,2025

Celebrate Lunar New Year in Monster Hunter Now! Niantic is hosting a special event featuring limited-time gear and the return of popular items.

This Lunar New Year event brings back fan-favorite equipment from 2024, alongside new additions. The powerful Kirin, a legendary elder dragon, makes its appearance in early February. Hunters will also have access to a new dragon-element light bowgun, providing a potent weapon against this formidable foe.

Boost your hunting success with exclusive Lunar New Year packs, including stylish layered armor. These packs offer a chance to acquire coveted items.

The event runs until February 2nd, offering a chance to obtain the Lucky Dragon Hammer, Fortune Dragon Fans, and Dragon Dance Mask, previously available last year. Defeating Gold Rathian, Pink Rathian, or Banbaro will reward players with Tickets redeemable for the Lucky Light Bowgun, Lucky Dragon Hammer, and Fortune Dragon Fans.
