TouchArcade Rating: Niantic and Capcom have unveiled the next significant update for Monster Hunter Now (Free). Season 3, titled "Curse of the Wandering Flames," introduces Magnamalo, the first original monster from Monster Hunter Rise, to the Monster Hunter Now lineup.

I'm particularly excited to see how Magnamalo and Rajang play, having enjoyed hunting them extensively in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne (for Rajang).
