After the PS4 version of Monster Hunter World received exclusive content from Horizon Zero Dawn, the game is now set to receive a treat from a Microsoft game as well. This is what the studio head of The Coalition (Gears of War 4) suggests, offering the creature Brumak for a potential collaboration.
PS4 players of Monster Hunter World were pleased some time ago with exclusive content from Horizon Zero Dawn, which brought along the weapon and armor of the heroine Aloy. It’s about time that a Microsoft game joins in, says Rod Fergusson, playfully offering the Brumak from Gears of War.
Brumak as an Exclusive Monster?
What is a Brumak? A Brumak is a massive creature armed with double-barreled chainguns mounted on its arms and a rocket launcher mounted on its back. This monster belongs to the Locust, the enemies of the Gears of War series. The Gears of War franchise is released exclusively for Microsoft, meaning not for the PlayStation 4.
What are collaboration events in MHW? Monster Hunter World regularly introduces small events where players can snag items such as armor or weapons from other games. For example, there have already been activities where players could acquire armor from Street Fighter or Devil May Cry.
While these quests were also available for Xbox One, the Aloy quest was only for PlayStation 4 players. The action RPG Horizon Zero Dawn, from which the items were borrowed, was also only released for the PlayStation 4.
Micha thinks: A Brumak in Monster Hunter World? Who wouldn’t want to fight against a giant creature armed with chainguns and a rocket launcher?
However, it seems rather unlikely that the creature will ever actually appear in the Capcom game. All other collaboration events in Monster Hunter World, except for the one related to Horizon Zero Dawn, included items from games that were also developed by Capcom, such as Mega Man, Street Fighter, and Devil May Cry.
In earlier entries of the Monster Hunter series, there were already collaborations with games not developed by Capcom. However, these have unfortunately never included a monster from another game.
