Assassin's enter Monster Hunter World!

If being able to hunt enormous monsters while being followed by a cute and helpful cat companion was not enough for you, developer Capcom have added a new event to 'Monster Hunter World' that gives you the opportunity to do the aforementioned activities dressed as an assassin.



The event is now live on console versions of the game but will make its way to the PC platform at a later date. Currently console players can take up the SDF: Silent, Deadly and Fierce quest and hunt two monsters, each of which yields a Senu's feather. Now for those that do not know, Senu is the name of the companion bird of protagonist Bayek in Assassin's Creed: Origins. Collecting the feathers allow player to grab the Bayek costume and an assassin hood. The armor is layered which means that players can wear it over existing equipment without changing the stats. The hood boosts your running, climbing and stealth stats. On top of this, it also boosts damage of stealth attacks.

Capcom is also planning a Witcher crossover soon so players can be on the lookout for that.
