Capcom, the developer of Monster Hunter: World, just announced title update five, which will come out on October 1. The update will bring in a new monster, Fatalis, which can be unlocked after finishing the Iceborne storyline and Alatreon investigation. Capcom is also adding Street Fighter V content into the PC version of Monster Hunter: World.
It should also be noted that this is the final major free update for Monster Hunter: World. After many years of development, it seems like the team at Capcom is looking to move on. Monster Hunter: World will still be supported with smaller updates, but don't expect any major new content additions after October 1.
