    This expansion to Monster Hunter: World is probably one of the best expansion in gaming history. This expansion adds so much to the base game!

This expansion can be considered as a sequel/entirely new game rather than an expansion. Everything this expansion adds to the game is a positive thing in my opinion, I see no negative side to this expansion. It adds in new combo to each weapon set, a new story, a new variety of armour set (most of the armour set looks AMAZING!), and of course MORE MONSTERS! I hope they continue to support this game.
    The only downside to the game is the matchmaking (SOS) which isn't so great but besides that, everything else is great.

    What the hell else do you want from a DLC? This is DLC is almost as big to be called a game on its own!!

    This is more like a sequel than an expansion. The volume is just crazy, with A LOT of new monsters and gear waiting for you. Be prepare to spend another hundreds of hours into Iceborne.
    However please be warned that the game itself is quite difficult.

    I knew next to nothing of this franchise before World , Gameplay is addictive, combat is satisfying, graphics are well executed. I hope they make many more Monster Hunter games on console in the future.Iceborne is a clear 10/10 DLC for me.

    Monster hunter world has now finally evolved into its final form and it is glorious, there can be little to no negatives or cons to this expansion. A stellar example to all of gaming on how to treat your fans and produce deep rich incredible content, you are doing yourself a disservice by not playing monster hunter world iceborne.

    Amazing game, a great add on to an already brilliant game

    Can't wait to get through it all so this is only a review on the part I have played through not the whole game

    I was waiting to play the game ever since it was announced and as the release day came closer. Capcom kept revealing more and more monsters and i was mind blown!
    This is how you make a game, this is how to treat DLC. I was so happy and bought a physical copy and gave my friend my old MHW so that he will get into this awesome game with me.
    The story is alright. But i think it is better

    The Grind is awesome and addictive and wanted to keep me playing for more. I haven't finished the game yet but i can say i will be worth it.
    The new regions are amazing, New Monsters put up a great challenge. New weapons and Armor is so badass!

    Amazing expansion! It adds everything the game needed, now it is a complete and proper MH experience. This is one of the best if not the best MH games, don't be deceived by people who are salty that it is not on a certain system ;)

    This is amazing, The rest of the industry should be ashamed with how good this expansion is. The amount of content, Capcom lives to the MH game by adding G rank again and Its better than ever, Going to love going through all the content iceborne offers.

    If you have world its a no brainer, if you don't... get world.

    This is literally the best expansion to a game I've ever played! Intense hard fought battles against some of the best monsters in the franchise!!! This is an easy 10/10

    This expansion makes every DLC of any other game feel ashamed. The added content is massive and without exaggerating doubles the original game content. It is a must for everyone who loved the base game and is looking for challenge, new monsters, sick designs and a story that even if not the main focus of a MH game has some nice twists.

    Capcom really put their heart and soul into this massive expansion. the monsters are even better than the base game's monsters already and I haven't even seen all of them yet. This is how an expansion should be treated, with fan service and dedication to their game. And they nailed it.

    The monster hunter is a fun game at it's core, but there are just so many bad features that just add up to me being more frustrated with the game rather than enjoying it. I'm afraid there is no going back for me after games like dark souls, sekiro, bloodborne.

I'm afraid there is no going back for me after games like dark souls, sekiro, bloodborne. The hitboxes in Monster Hunter are a last century, who hasn't been hit by Diablo's or Nergigante's shoulder slam while standing on the other side of the monster? Or by random charge attack while standing behind one? Or have their charge blade clip right through the monster's tail without doing any damage at all?

    The typical fight is supposed to follow a routine more or less, where you fight the monster normally, monster eventually enrages, monster eventually tires out allowing you to deal a fair bit of damage. What really happens more often than not is monster just flees to another area right after the enrage is over, making you chase it through the map. Or some other monster drops in for a turf war making youi watch from sidelines, fun the first time, annoying when it happens for a 100th time. These are not the only examples of this, but basically the feeling that I generally get is that of being cheated.

    I've played through vanilla MH, it was OK. But I've made a mistake of buying the icebourne, you know how all the people rave about G-rank this G-rank that, and how the master rank (HM equivalent of G-Rank) is where the game is going to be at. Well it is not, it's just more of the same crap, except now it takes 3 times as long to kill everything.

    The expansion is overpriced, at 40€ it adds just a single new biome for a total of 6 (and a 2nd one, which is kind of a mix out of all existing biomes) and a couple of new monsters + reskins of the previous ones. Is it harder than the original, well technically no, but simply by virtue of taking three times as long people are bound to make a couple more mistakes during the fight.

    An expansion that makes even the base game look small, plenty of old and new monsters to hunt. The added difficulty being a nice bonus for the hardcore fans with storytelling having improved too.

    They really screwed MHW with this update. Half of the monsters in this DLC have unblockable and unavoidable instant kills because Capcom forgot what good game design is. This this DLC is trash and not worth the 40 bucks Capcom is asking for. If they do another DLC like this I hope they actually put some f**king effort into it. Also would be nice if the servers could stay online for moreThey really screwed MHW with this update.

    Iceborne manages to take the QoL changes that World made to the series, and render them completely moot. Combine that with a lack of a compelling story, poorly programmed monsters, mechanics that do not work and terrible balancing issues, and you're left with an expansion that's best left unplayed.

    Absolute trash as expected, nothing more then a total reskin of the vanilla game, fits in perfectly with the greed trash of today’s gaming that goes hand in hand with the single digit iq gamers.

    Overpriced and overated. Sure its a decent game as mhw but cmon... $40? To much recycled content and make things harder by adding tons of hp on monster and insta kill attacks.. not fun at all. IF foi really want to play wait for a price drop and better online gameplay.

    Para ser una expancion masiva es de lo mejor que e jugado, capcom se preocupo por otorgar una experiencia extra con variantes, correcciones y añadiduras en todos los aspectos, mounstros, jugabilidad, accesorios, historia etc. Más es contenido vía DLC quedo satisfecho y con la justificación en precio y calidad, gracias capcom recomiendo ampliamente

    Monster Hunter World è stato per me un gioco stupendo perché era riuscito a regalarmi delle emozioni uniche sia in solitaria che con gli amici: mi ha fatto sentire davvero parte di quel mondo vivo e stupendo come non mai. Questa espansione riesce nell'arduo compito di prolungare e riproporre le emozioni del gioco base facendomi di nuovo perdere nell'incredibile mondo di gioco. Capolavoro.

    While this expansion will certainly frustrate new hunters learning the ropes, it gives veterans nearly everything they craved for after finishing the original experience. Capcom continues to do what it does best in this series, improving upon prior efforts to refine these games for an even finer sheen. When it comes to games about hunting monsters, Monster Hunter World: Iceborne proves that this series is the apex predator.

    Folks that loved how engaging and approachable Monster Hunter: World was will find Iceborne offers more of the same with enough exciting changes to invigorate the many hunts they're sure to have.

    While exciting new monsters and more freedom in equipment are definitely welcome additions, the Guiding Lands endgame content’s poorly balanced level design will make players feel uncomfortable.
