‘Monster Hunter Now’ Season 3 To Add Magnamalo, Heavy Bowgun Weapon, Cooking, and More on September 11th

TouchArcade Rating: Niantic and Capcom have unveiled the next significant update for Monster Hunter Now (Free). Season 3, titled "Curse of the Wandering Flames," introduces Magnamalo, the first original monster from Monster Hunter Rise to join the Monster Hunter Now lineup. Accompanying Magnamalo are two other formidable foes: Rajang (a personal favorite) and Aknosom. This update also introduces a new weapon, the Heavy Bowgun, and adds cooking mechanics. I'm particularly excited to see how Magnamalo and Rajang translate into Monster Hunter Now, given my fondness for hunting them in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne (for Rajang).
