It has been a long time since Capcom gave any updates about its previous titleMonster Hunter World Iceborne. The company released two titles this year alone,Monster Hunter RiseandMonster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin, so it is understandable that the developer focus would be on thesepopular Nintendo Switch titles. Now, Capcom has announced that several ofIceborneevent quests will be removed from the game, specifically the collaborations between theMonster Huntermovie and theAssassin’s Creedseries.
MostMonster Hunterplayers would likely agree that most of the endgame content in the series revolves around gearing up, and facing powered-up versions of monsters found in the game. But endgame also includes Capcom releasing DLC and collaboration quests with other popular titles. This can be seen in the new events released forMonster Hunter Rise, as well as the continuous addition ofnew monsties inWings of Ruin. This is what also drew many players to keep playingIceborne, so it is likely sad for fans to see some of them being permanently removed from the title.

The officialMonster HunterTwitter account recently posted details to announce the removal of several event quests inMonster Hunter World: Iceborne. According to the posts, theMonster Huntermovie andAssassin’s Creedevent quests will no longer be available in-game starting July 10, 2025, at 00:00 UTC. This means that players who have not completed these quests before will not be able to access them. Though players who already have the Mila Jovovich layered armor and theAssassin’s CreedBayek Layered Armorwill still be able to use them, players who were not able to finish the event quests after their removal will no longer be able to acquire them.
Given that there aremixed reviews about theMonster Huntermovie, players are likely not that broken up about the event quest being removed. However, there are a lot ofAssassin’s Creedfans out there who are alsoIceborneplayers, so this may make them feel sad to see the quest go. However, there are still a lot of other event quests inIcebornethat they can go back to, even though Capcom has newer titles to offer on the Switch.
With the announcement ofMH Risebeing added to PC this 2022, there may be an even bigger dip to the already lowering player count ofMonster Hunter World: Iceborne. However, many fans will likely remember the game fondly, given that it may have been their first introduction to theMonster Hunterseries.
Monster Hunter World: Iceborneis available for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
