If you're a devoted Monster Hunter Now player and have been craving a fresh challenge, Niantic has some exciting news for you. The newly introduced Monster Outbreak feature is here to test your hunting skills like never before. This limited-time event was first tested on April 26th to 27th, offering players a glimpse into what's sure to be an intense and rewarding gameplay experience.

During a Monster Outbreak, a massive number of the same monster will spawn in a concentrated area. To take part, you must be within range of the outbreak zone and team up with other hunters—this is strictly a group activity. Working together, your mission is clear: defeat a set number of monsters, with the current target set at 100. Before the event begins, you can sign up via the roster to secure your spot and even earn an exclusive hunter medal just for registering.

Upon completing the outbreak, you’ll be rewarded with a variety of valuable monster parts, making it well worth the effort. And speaking of challenges, the first monster chosen for this outbreak is none other than the formidable Black Diablos, an eight-star beast known for its aggressive behavior and electrifying attacks. As you progress through the event, you'll face wave after wave of this powerful creature, keeping the action fast-paced and adrenaline-fueled.

This new mechanic not only shakes up the standard gameplay loop but also offers seasoned hunters a prolonged and engaging challenge. If you're looking for something beyond routine hunts, Monster Outbreaks might just be the answer.

As always, your feedback matters. Niantic encourages players to share their thoughts on the feature via official community forums or social media channels. Your insights could help shape the future of the game.

And if you're planning to dive into the outbreak, make sure you’re not doing it without rewards. Check out our regularly updated list of Monster Hunter Now promo codes to maximize your in-game gains and prepare for battle the best way possible.
