'Monster Hunter Now' Season 3 Features Magnamalo, More on Sept. 11

TouchArcade Rating: Niantic and Capcom have unveiled the next significant update for Monster Hunter Now (Free). Season 3, titled "Curse of the Wandering Flames," introduces Magnamalo, the first original monster from Monster Hunter Rise to join the Monster Hunter Now lineup.

I'm particularly eager to experience Magnamalo and Rajang in Monster Hunter Now, having enjoyed hunting them extensively in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne (for Rajang).
