Key points
- Capcom will implement gradual performance improvements for PC Monster Hunter Wilds players.
- The developers are targeting the Free Title Update 4 for the initial implementation of the plan.
- Monster Hunter Wilds currently has a “Mostly Negative” review score on Steam due to its poor optimization.
In an X post on Aug. 19, 2025, Capcom announced that it is planning to implement gradual improvements to the performance and stability of Monster Hunter Wilds in the near future. The developers are targeting the Free Title Update 4 timing for the initial implementation of the plan.
The developers clarified that this will be a multistep plan. After the initial implementation of the CPU and GPU optimization patch, the developers said that it will be followed by a “second stage of mitigation measures afterwards.”
In a previous X post, the developers revealed that the fourth free title update will add a new monster and more challenging hunts. The developers did not reveal much about it, only saying that the title update will be released this winter.
Monster Hunter Wilds is Capcom’s newest addition to the Monster Hunter franchise. The game was released on Feb. 28, 2025. The game was received positively by critics and players alike, but as the game progressed, players found out that the game was poorly optimized on PC.
This has resulted in the game currently having a “Mostly Negative” review score on Steam. The problem has gotten out of hand recently, to the point where Capcom canceled a Monster Hunter Wilds optimization lecture at CEDEC 2025 due to fear for the safety of its staff.
