You can select from 4 different weapons and team up to take down the massive monsters! Weapons are divided into “melee” and “ranged” categories, so pick the one that best fits your hunting style. Whether you choose a team of three wielding greatswords or a trio of light bowgun users, the choice is yours! Don’t look to us for any hints—you’ll have to find out which weapon suits you best through trail by fire!
