A LIVING WORLD
A LIVING WORLD
A world with an ever-changing climate.
Life here has learned to adapt to the harsh environments, the wildlife developing its own ecosystem,
and the humans developing their own culture within it.
SCROLL
CHANGING ENVIRONMENTS CHANGING ENVIRONMENTS
Experience two distinct seasons in the massive, ever-changing environments found in the game.
Fallow, a period where hungry predators roam the land for food,
is followed by an ecology-altering Inclemency, leading to a rich period of Plenty.
The same locale may look completely different between depending on the two seasons.
Each environment is inhabited by its own apex predator, which will appear during the area's Inclemency.
Discover how the people and monsters have adapted to the wild changes of the land.
MONSTER HERDS MONSTER HERDS
In the Forbidden Lands, you'll encounter not only herds of small monsters—some of the large monsters of the region may also form packs.
Each group has its own place in the ecosystem, with its own unique movements and behaviours.
ECOSYSTEMS ECOSYSTEMS
Windward Plains
The Windward Plains are a diverse region filled with sandy deserts,
swaying grasslands, twisting rock formations, and other natural features.
As a member of the Research Expedition charged with investigating the Forbidden Lands,
the Windward Plains is the first new hunting locale you'll visit.
This land experiences an Inclemency known as the Sandtide, a great sandstorm roiling with thunder.
Scarlet Forest
Following the river found in the Windward Plains will lead you to the verdant Scarlet Forest, with its towering trees and abundant water.
As you take your first steps here in your journey, your eyes are drawn to the peculiar red-colored water found on the forest floor...
This land experiences an Inclemency known as the Downpour, a torrential rainstorm that floods the surrounding area.
Oilwell Basin
A unique locale where, as its name suggests, oil wells up from the ground and accumulates in deep pools of oilsilt.
This land experiences an Inclemency known as the Firespring, a phenomenon in which fierce fires blaze.
Iceshard Cliffs
A frigid land swept with snowy blizzards.
INHABITANTS INHABITANTS
Each area contains settlements established by peoples that have called that environment home for generations. Experience how each community has grown and adapted to their environment, and how their culture and daily lives have been shaped by this adaption.
EXPEDITIONS EXPEDITIONS
Expeditions can now be undertaken with a number of objectives in mind.
Additionally, any monster currently in the area can be targeted at any time in order to start a new quest.
Note: Some monsters can't be targeted due to progression or other certain situations.
Supporting you in your expeditions will be your trusty Handler and Palico, as well as your Seikret mount and plenty of new tools.
