Popular video game Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is to be converted into a board game, which means you’ll soon be able to play the game without a console. The game is being produced by Steamforged Games, and you can pre-order it via their Kickstarter from May 18th.

Monster Hunter World Iceborne: The Board Game is a standalone game that will plunge players into an icy new monster hunting experience, introducing different quests, unique gameplay mechanics, and a new line-up of massive monsters for players to hunt. It looks like another big-box game stuffed with minis and cool mechanics, which is really fun to play with.

The Iceborne board game is a follow-up to Steamforged’s wildly successful Monster Hunter: World board game, which raised £3.4 million and gained over 20,000 backers on Kickstarter in 2021. The original Monster Hunter board game will be on the shelves of your friendly local games store later this year.

Steamforged Games is based in Manchester, England and have produced board game adaptations for video games such as Dark Souls, Horizon Zero Dawn and Resident Evil.

Mat Hart, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer at Steamforged Games said: “We’re beyond excited to continue our journey through the Monster Hunter: World universe. There are many big fans of Monster Hunter on the team, and it’s been a pleasure seeing how positively the first board game has been received as an authentic and faithful adaptation. Now, we’re dedicated to bringing Iceborne to life on the tabletop in a way that does equal justice to the unique experience of hunting monsters through the frozen wastes. Get your Clutch Claws ready!”
