Monster Hunter World Iceborne takes us to a fresh and frosty new environment, and any new world in this land means new monsters to boot. Iceborne sees the return of many favorite beasts form the series, as well as introducing new variants of existing monsters. Don’t worry, you’ll have the chance to hunt them all when you set out into the snowy valleys from Hoarfrost Reach. To help you get an idea of the beasts spoiling for a fight, we’ve put together a list of all new monsters in Monster Hunter World Iceborne.
All new monsters in Monster Hunter World Iceborne
There are a whopping 27 new big monsters to meet as you play through Monster Hunter World Iceborne. They’ll pop up as you progress through the game, with plenty arriving as exciting surprises along the way. If you’d like to avoid any spoilers, we recommend you stop reading now. Otherwise, keep going for a complete list of all new monsters in Monster Hunter World Iceborne!
Within the 27 monsters Iceborne introduces, roughly half are variants of the Monsters found in the main game.

The rest are a mix of monsters from older Monter Hunter titles or ones entirely new to Iceborne.
