After a week of non-stop uploading, Capcom has finished posting all of its short weapon trailers for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, the game's upcoming expansion that's set to release this September. Above, we've got our first proper look at the clutch claw, a new gadget that lets you mount a monster with ease. It should add some welcome mobility to an already great combat system.
Now, as mentioned, every weapon type in Monster Hunter: World is getting an upgrade when Iceborne drops. New attacks and techniques will flesh your favourite armaments out even further.
Great Sword
Long Sword
Dual Blades
Sword and Shield
Hammer
Hunting Horn
Lance
Gunlance
Switch Axe
Charge Blade
Bow
Insect Glaive
Light Bowgun
Heavy Bowgun
And there you have it, all of the weapon changes in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne broken down into 14 short but sweet gameplay trailers. Let us know what your favourite weapon type is and whether you're happy with its changes in the comments section below.

the heavy bowgun is my lethal weapon of choice.that will give the monsters bloodsport.steven seagal. vs the legendary Jean Claude van damme.im still playing monster Hunter world.amazing game.word ☝ up son
That new Odogaran armor looks sick!
Also, RIP Insect Glaive.
Sticking with my hammer...
GreatSword for me ! Been using a GS since MH on PS2.
I got MHW about a week ago. Since I have it, I'm definitely eyeing the expansion.
I started with S&S, but I tried out the Insect Glaive, and I really like using it.
I'm really looking forward to this, I recently picked MH World back up just to check out all the free additions I missed out on before Iceborne hits. Also as a Long Sword user myself, that new quickdraw move looks sick!
Great Sword, Long Sword, Sword and Shield, Dual Blades, Hammer, Hunting Horn, Lance, Gunlance, Switch Axe, Charge Blade, Insect Glaive definitely going to use these weapons.
So they are making the swords even more powerful hopefully they don't forget to buff the blunt weapons especially the hunting horn
@WanderingBullet The armor looks amazing but I can't look past those awful ears on the hat. It would be perfect without those things.
@Jimmy_G_Buckets My character's a male and the male armor doesn't have those ears or horn thingies. haha
Updated with the new videos.
That clutch claw looks really fun to use
This is such a hard decision to make not so sure to get mhw iceborne or just wait for persona 5 the royal for next year.
Updated again!
@ShogunRok thanks for the updates. Icebourne is going to be a huge expansion and I'm impressed with what has been shown so far
Is that a new Bone Set on the HH video?
@Athrum It's probably the armor you can get from this guy.

@WanderingBullet Nah, the Banbaro armor is the one on the hammer video
@playstation1995 We should team up for some hunts some time. I'm no expert but hold my own. Longsword, Hammer and Bow user.
@Jimmy_G_Buckets yeah no doubt playa.is 2 pac or biggie in your top 5 favorite MCs of all times.mine is 1. nas.2.eric b and rakim.3.wu tang clan.4.mobb deep.5.run dmc.honorable mentions.kool g rap.epmd.gangstarr.etc.word up son
@playstation1995 gangstarr was my hunter name in Generations so they're up there for me too. Gotta say though I think EPMD is overrated. I'd throw Jay-Z and Eminem in there but I like your East Coast flavor.
@Athrum My bad, I was looking at the wrong one.lol
@Jimmy_G_Buckets nah no jay z for me.big daddy Kane.krs one.epmd .onyx is way better than jay z.word up son
Updated yet again!
Hammers for me, I’ve been using poison hammers since the 3DS ones and love smashing monsters in the face. Not long till September, bring it on.
Hammers only for the spinning attack Bow and Longsword.
@ShogunRok what are your preferred weapons in MHW?
@Wilkens I played through the entire main story and a bit of the endgame with the long sword, but then I switched to lance and never looked back. Played MHW for about 350 hours total.
I regret not making a male Hunter. Their gear looks so much better... No way am I starting over tho.
@Splat I think you can redesign your character once for free now and can change it subsequent times for a small fee
The best thing I'm seeing in this videos is that now, probably because of the introduction of the clutch claw, every single weapon, not only the SnS, can shoot the slinger without having to sheathe. I'm sure GL users will be overjoyed. Also IG. I main IG and I hate when I have to sheathe my weapon to use the slinger, because it recalls the kinsect.
Updated... Again!
Looks like Charge Blade is gonna get even better
Added the final two videos!
@WanderingBullet I'm still gonna use the IG to get better mounts but yeah i have to agree the IG was the weakest new weapon feature revealed.
