Monster Hunter World: Iceborne’s Clutch Claw is essentially a giant grappling hook
Ahead of the release of Monster Hunter World: Iceborne later this year, Capcom has revealed a handful of new weapons that will feature in the upcoming expansion. Three weapons - the Long Sword, Great Sword, and the Clutch Claw were shown off in trailers published earlier today.
The Great Sword is, as you might expect, pretty imposing. In its trailer, it’s used to block a charge from an enormous moose-monster, before the hunter wielding it closes in for some devastating hits. The Long Sword, while also pretty powerful, is somewhat more nimble, allowing for some speedy attacks but some equally impressive finishers.
Most impressive, however, is the Clutch Claw. First referenced in an Iceborne livestream earlier this month, the new weapon is a massive grappling hook that allows you to stick onto a monster’s flank and deal some significant damage. If that weren’t enough, it also lets you cover ground pretty quickly, and offers a means to steer your quarry into harm’s way.
