'Monster Hunter: World' (ALL) Weapon Design Contest

by Rainier on July 27, 2017 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT

Monster Hunter: World sees players take on the role of a hunter who completes various quests to hunt and slay monsters within a living and breathing ecosystem full of predators ... and prey.

Monster Hunter: World introduces a living, breathing ecosystem in which players take on the role of a hunter that seeks and slays ferocious beasts in heart-pounding battles that unfold across the vast ever-changing terrain. Venture on quests alone or with up to three hunters in a newly designed online drop-in multiplayer system which allows cross-region cooperative play between Japan and the west, uniting the player base for the first time ever.

Retaining the series’ skill based progression and robust crafting system, players gear up to venture on quests to seek and slay monsters, progressively improving their skills to become the ultimate hunter. Loot collected from fallen foes can be used to create new equipment and armor upgrades styled after the monsters they’ve slain, allowing hunters to survive the elements and defeat the tougher opponents that await them.

Monster Hunter: World delivers a seamless gameplay experience allowing players to move freely across map areas that comprise the living ecosystems and dynamically transition from day to night. The landscape and its diverse inhabitants play a critical role in each quest as players strategically use the surrounding environment including terrain, vegetation and wildlife to their advantage in battle or become hindered by the hazards they present. Hunters must use their cunning and abilities to track and maneuver their targets throughout the intense, evolving battles.

With flexible online multiplayer options and an accessible quest structure, players can tackle challenges alone or join up to three other hunters online for cooperative play. For the first time in the Monster Hunter series, players from Japan and the west can play together online, providing an expanded base of cooperative hunting companions. With the new online drop-in functionality, solo players can hail for assistance from the worldwide group during quests when their opponents are too daunting to take on single-handedly.

Hunters, sharpen your pencils and load up on ink. We have an urgent quest for you today: design a weapon for Monster Hunter: World!

One of the best parts of Monster Hunter is getting to craft epic weapons and armor to then bring them out to the field and show the monsters who’s boss... and show your friends how fashionable and stylish you are.

Equipment designs vary from simple bone and metal based gear all the way to more empowering armaments built from the remains of your felled targets. But they all have one thing in common: they always look amazing (biased personal opinion)!

And now we’re offering you the chance to be part of the special process of creating something unique for the upcoming Monster Hunter: World with a weapon design contest. Here are the quest details (AKA how to participate):

We’re looking for one original design for one of the 14 existing weapon types in Monster Hunter: World, along with a name and a short description for your entry. All you have to do is put all that together and send it to us via email. The winning design will be made into a weapon in the game itself!

I know this is no small task, so we’ll give you until 9:00pm PT of August 16, 2017 to submit your entry. Also make sure to read all the Terms & Conditions, which include additional submission details:

North America, Central America, and South America residents, click here, while Europe, Middle East, Africa and Oceania residents, click here.
