Everything in the Appreciation Fest – Monster Hunter World

With Monster Hunter World being out for a year now on consoles, Capcom has decided to hold an appreciation festival for fans of the game. Like other festivals, the Appreciation Fest features a number of new unlockables for hunters to collect. To help you collect these items, use our guide to everything in the Appreciation Fest below. The Appreciation Fest runs from January 26 to February 21, 2019

Poogie and Handler Costumes

When you go to Astera for the first time after downloading the Appreciation Fest update, you may notice that both your Poogie and the Handler look a bit different. Your Poogie has on the outfit Sparkling Party, while the Handler is wearing the Friendly Felyne outfit. The Poogie’s outfit will unlock permanently, but the Handler outfit is only available for a limited time during the seasonal event, and will need to be purchased (with real money) if you want to use it after the festival is over.

Note: You need to head to the Gathering Hub to have the outfits appear. If you wish to change Poogie’s costume, simply interact with it and select the Change Clothes option. To change the Handler’s Outfit, talk with your Housekeeper and select the Change the Handler’s Outfit option.

Like previous events, the Appreciation Fest brings back a number of quests that had previously expired.

There have been a number of events which have occured since Monster Hunter World dropped back in January. Most of these events were on a short timer, meaning you probably missed a few. While the Appreciation Fest runs, you will be able to access all previous Events that have occured in Monster Hunter World. This means you will be able to get the Aloy gear, Street Fighter gear, or whatever else you may have missed. Thanks Capcom!

Some Quests to Complete:

Alongside replaying these old quests, there is a new, limited time quest you can complete during the Appreciation Fest this event is called The Greatest Jagras (Under Events 9*).


Vendor Sales During Appreciation Fest

During the Appreciation Fest, you will find the vendors will sell items at a discount. This means you can stock up on things like the Large Barrel Bombs for cheap. Items for sale are denoted by the medal to the right of them on the buy screen (pretty much all items are on sale). You will also notice that vendors like the Botanical Research Center and the Elder Melder are also offering items for lower prices.

New Guild Card Background and Pose

The Gathering Hub is Decorated for the Appreciation Fest

The Gathering Hub has been decorated for the occasion.

The last part of the Appreciation Fest I will highlight is the Gathering Hub has been decorated for the occasion. In the center of the Gathering Hub you will notice a couple of giant Palicos. Besides the giant Palicos you may also notice that all the NPCs and the area itself are way more festive than normal. Besides these added visual flairs, there is a new Appreciation Platter which you can purchase from the Canteen.
