Monster Hunter Wilds devs “have polished our game as much as possible,” producer says, which might not be very reassuring for the PC players experiencing performance issues

Monster Hunter Wilds has had a rollercoaster of a first day on Steam, because while it continues to break its own player records and climb higher up the all-time concurrent player record charts, it’s also been hit with “Mixed” reviews as a result of performance issues. This is despite the fact that the devs say they “have polished our game as much as possible.”

Many hunters are struggling to get Monster Hunter Wilds to run as it should – its performance has been described as “atrocious,” and some have even claimed that the full release runs worse than the open beta did. Even the free PC benchmark tool doesn’t seem to have helped matters, with some given the go-ahead for their hardware’s capabilities only for the game to struggle regardless.
