Is Iceborne DLC going to be free?

[Big Shaq]

I just bought the game last week and already played 60 hours so far but I can see that the DLC will make the game much better and easier which I really like because I really hate hard games.

But if the DLC is not gonna be free then I will have to refund this game and wait for the DLC because I wanna play the better version instead of wasting my time on this boring one.

The expansion will do nothing to make the game easier. It's adding an additional difficulty rank.

And, it's going to cost $40 USD.

It's gonna be FREEzing, let me tell you..

[Valimar]

yes

Refund it and wait for the special edition which will include the base game + dlc for 60 bucks.

[Jethro]

Afaik you can't refund if you already played mroe than 2 hours or you own the game for longer than 14 days.

[Hakaziel]

Its not free , but u still have to complete the original main quest to play the iceborne map

to save 10 bucks only ? and need to wait 6 months or more ? yeah buddy...those 10 dollars totally worth it (last week MH was at 50% discount).

OP you need to finish the base story anyway to play iceborne.

What do you mean to save 10 bucks only. Woudn't he have to pay 40 bucks for the expansion even if he has the base game anyway?


Edit: Welp, since he also has played the game for 80hours already, it's out of question anyway.

Good luck with that.

DLC is far to overused as a blanket term for too many things covering too many different definitions.

Iceborne is essentially an expansion so no it won't be free.

I think we really need to revive the concept of an expansion and stop using DLC to label all downloadable content..
It's too vague and DLC can be applied anywhere from a free update to a paid costume or right up to a full blown expansion..

Can understand why some people get confused because of it.
I prefer the term expansion anyway.

I already finished the story. I was pretty disappointed that there's no Akantor or Ukanlos in this game but instead there's this xeno thing which is pretty boring.

So the DLC is gonna cost more than the game itself?

[Endarion]

The base price of the game is $60. So, no.

It's almost like the same thread is posted repeatedly with slight variations in the wording every three posts.
