Niantic and Capcom have unveiled the next major update for Monster Hunter Now (Free). The game's Season 3, titled "Curse of the Wandering Flames," introduces Magnamalo as the first original monster from Monster Hunter Rise to join the Monster Hunter Now lineup. Joining Magnamalo are two other formidable monsters, including a personal favorite: Rajang. The final new monster addition is Aknosom. This Season 3 update for Monster Hunter Now also brings a new weapon, the Heavy Bowgun, introduces cooking as a gameplay feature, and more. I'm excited to see how Magnamalo and Rajang perform in the game, as I truly enjoy hunting both in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne (specifically for Rajang). Take a look at the official artwork for Magnamalo in Monster Hunter Now below:

Here's a preview of some new gear featured in this update:
