Coming late September, the flashily-monikered “Update 2” will add a selection of new beasties to the game world, all ready and raring to be placed inside your trophy cabinet, or to make you a part of theirs. Leading the pack is the Flaming Espinas, a creature first discovered in 2008 PC releaseMonster Hunter Frontier Season 2.0.While typical in stature to the common Espinas, this variant boasts a hazardous orange glow, warning prey that its devastating flame breath is getting set to cinder.
Along with the arrival of this scary giant, Update 2 will feature new Rare creatures as well as “powered-up variants ofSunbreak‘s more familiar fare. Players should also most likely expect a fresh run of balance tweaks and bug stomps, ensuring that all is well in the lands of Kamura. A third update, coming this winter, will round outSunbreak‘s 2022 content, though further quests, monsters, gear, and other additions are planned for release as we head into 2023.
