Capcom Enhances Monster Hunter Wilds Performance and Aims to Reduce GPU Requirements
Capcom is actively optimizing Monster Hunter Wilds to improve performance and potentially lower the required GPU specifications for PC players before the game's official release. This follows feedback from the initial beta test.
Addressing Performance Concerns
A January 19, 2025, announcement on the German Monster Hunter Twitter (X) account showcased improved gameplay, highlighting smoother performance in the PS5's updated Prioritize Framerate mode. This mode prioritizes frame rate over some graphical details. Capcom indicated similar optimizations are underway for the PC version, with a specific focus on reducing the necessary GPU power. The goal is to lower the recommended GPU requirements.
Lowering the Bar for PC Gamers
Currently, the minimum GPU requirements are an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super or an AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT. Successful optimization could make the game playable on lower-end hardware, expanding accessibility to a wider player base. Capcom also plans to release a free benchmarking tool to help players assess their system's compatibility.
Beta Test Feedback and Improvements
The initial open beta test (October-November 2024) revealed performance issues, including low-poly models and frame rate drops, prompting concerns among players. Capcom acknowledged these problems, addressing one specific afterimage issue slated for correction in the final release.
A second open beta test, scheduled for February 7-10 and 14-17, 2025, on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam, will feature the Bird Wyvern Gypceros and a new monster. Whether the performance improvements will be fully implemented in this beta remains to be seen. The inclusion of these improvements is highly anticipated.
