'Monster Hunter NOW' Season 3 Unveils Magnamalo, Bowgun, and More

TouchArcade Rating: Niantic and Capcom have unveiled the next major content drop for Monster Hunter Now (Free). Season 3, dubbed "Curse of the Wandering Flames," introduces Magnamalo, the first original monster from Monster Hunter Rise to join the Monster Hunter Now hunt. Joining Magnamalo are two other formidable foes: the electrifying Rajang (a personal favorite!) and the aerial Aknosom. This update also introduces a new weapon – the Heavy Bowgun – and the highly anticipated addition of cooking mechanics. I'm particularly excited to see how Magnamalo and Rajang translate to the mobile experience, having enjoyed countless hunts with them in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. Behold Magnamalo's Monster Hunter Now artwork:
