Review

Monster Hunter Now, a smartphone game in the " Monster Hunter " series co-developed by Capcom and Niantic, will be held from December 23, 2023 (Saturday) to January 8, 2024 (Tuesday), during the New Year's holiday event The " Winter Festival" will be held from Saturday, December 23, 2023 to Tuesday, January 8, 2024. The appearance rate of three monsters, "Rio Reia subspecies," "Diablos subspecies," and "Jin'oga," will be increased at a certain rate during the event. When you go out for Hatsumode (New Year's visit) or New Year's sales, start "Monster Hunter Now"" and go out! Monster Hunter Now" allows you to take pictures of large monsters using the AR function. In "Monster Hunter", there are various "dragons" such as the old dragon species, pterosaur species, and flying dragon species, but since 2024 is the " Year of the Dragon", the cherry fire dragon, or "Rio Realei, will appear in the game. I celebrated the New Year by taking a picture with the "Rio Reia subspecies", which is a cherry fire dragon!

The photo shows the "Rio Reia subspecies" that appeared in the forest area. In the actual game, you have to be prepared to die to get close to it, but since it is in AR, you can stand next to it and take a picture. Standing next to the "Rioreia subspecies" gives you a new sense of its size.

The monsters appear in everyday scenes and can be photographed in a variety of poses. With such a large size, you may worry about destroying the city, but since it is on AR, there is no problem! The way you celebrate the New Year is up to you, whether you were not on Earth or went on a New Year's visit, but you can also be with your monster.

To activate the AR function, tap on a large monster in the game field, then tap "AR" in the upper left corner of the hunting preparation screen!
