What people are saying
Mixed reception: praised for fun gameplay and updates, but criticized for poor performance and monetization.
Many players praise the game's fun and satisfying combat, especially after performance updates. One player notes, 'As of 1/27/2026 I can wholeheartedly recommend this game. CAPCOM has made optimization improvements,' while another says, 'Great game before optimize patch, Super Smooth Great game after optimize patch.' [1][7]
However, many criticize the game's poor optimization and monetization. One player states, 'game used to run really badly, now it only runs moderately badly,' and another alleges, 'the new "Gold Edition" is massive extorsion.' Some also report crashes and connection issues. [32][29][36]

60 of 379 · most liked firstI've been holding off reviewing this game for a couple of reasons. Most people will know by now that PC performance of the game has been pretty bad for all but the most recent hardware. And even then it still has issues. Truth be told though, it's not that interesting of an issue to me. Beyond the fact that I have recent hardware and have never had any major problems running the game, the dumb reality of "AAA" gaming is that everything it broken and gets patched up later. So I decided to…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thank you for an incredible 7 years with Monster Hunter: World! It's thanks to your support that the game has set Capcom record-highs, carving a path for the release of Monster Hunter Wilds in just over one month. What are your favorite Monster Hunter: World memories & accomplishments?
unlabelledView post →As of 1/27/2026 I can wholeheartedly recommend this game. CAPCOM has made optimization improvements, and given additional CPU settings that will make this game playable to a much wider audience. The gameplay is fun and satisfying. The weapon combos are relatively easy to chain, and the weapons genuinely all feel effective and unique. There's a wide variety of monsters to hunt in a variety of locations to customize difficulty to what you need. Endgame is still fun while offering a large…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unfortunately I cannot recommend this game. Released in February and the performance is still awful, arguably worse. This game needed to come out a year later at the very least, but the greed of meeting the fiscal yearly earnings ruined its potential. I really enjoyed this game, mostly at 30/40fps. the combat and gameplay loop is very fun. A big improvement from World, taking some ideas from Rise. If they follow through with fixing the performance, I might change the review, but currently,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have approximately 1,200+ hours across the franchise, including time spent arguing about motion values in spreadsheets that absolutely should have been used for real employment. I say this not as a flex, but as a warning: I am exactly the target audience for Monster Hunter Wilds… and this game still managed to exhaust me in a way that feels less like hunting apex predators and more like debugging a group project where no one read the design doc. Monster Hunter Wilds is what happens when you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Going into this game I was eagerly excited. How could hunting monsters be anything other than extraordinarily invigorating? How could one possibly ♥♥♥♥ this up? I knew there were performance issues people complained about, but I was undaunted. I decided to support this franchise, one of the last that still sparks dopamine in me. Against common sense I bought the deluxe edition as a token of good faith to the dev team. Performance issues for me were rare, so I assumed it was just people with…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →For anyone who prepurchased this game, bought it on release, or even shortly after, the new "Gold Edition" is massive extorsion. With 69.99+€ for the base game or upgrades and more paid for other DLC items, the base price of the current base game or DLC Collection would have already been covered. 10€ up and you could have had every single item that is now available. I purchased the base game and 14 DLC items bringing me at least to 100-110€ spent on the game. With that i could have bought…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's recent performance improvements are kind of like going from crapping your pants, to pissing your pants instead. Technically better, but still not exactly a positive experience. It's actually quite impressive how you can get the exact same performance on both the lowest and highest presets in the game, with both CPU/GPU usage and FPS neither increasing or decreasing. They will of course say that their plan is complete and the game is now fixed, and people will clamber to praise them for…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As much as I love the monster hunter franchise, They just too greedy. Premium deluxe customer should get convert to gold edition for free. They love newcomers so much that they ignore old customers.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →game used to run really badly, now it only runs moderately badly
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Steam Deck verified is a joke when it can't even keep a stable 30fps with minimum graphics settings and ultra-performance upscaling. Looks awful and runs ever worse...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I rarely leave reviews. I liked Monster Hunter World and was genuinely looking forward to this release. I even bought a copy for my friend so we could play together. The gameplay loop is a bit too simple, and my favorite weapon (sraaku) isn’t that good compared to its counterpart in Rise. However, the biggest issue I have with this game is its performance. It’s been eight months, and the company still hasn’t done anything to address it. This is the first game where I’ve actually had to…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →When I think about Monster Hunter, I think of having to explore a map, learning the layout, find and keep track of the monster I need to fight, being careful about my positioning and commitment to moves, and having to fight a monster more than once or twice to finally get the equipment pieces I want or need. This game does nothing of the sort, and what is still present here, is heavily disincentivized. Maps are uninspired, uninteresting, just a blur of a single color, nothing striking,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Can't play it, Crash after crash.... Cant even make it to the menu anymore after this last updates.... What a shame that developers still prioritize events, micro-transactions and so forth before stability of the game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are already many negative reviews that give very valuable feedback on the game. For whatever reason, it does not seem that anything is done to directly address issues raised by the playerbase. Rather, the devs have dealt with them peripherally, or just straight up insulted the playerbase with collaborations nobody asked for when technical issues are the most salient. There is nothing wrong with introducing new content, and it can be good when the game works. But the game barely works for…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I think it’s time to add a more grounded perspective to the discourse around Monster Hunter Wilds. Some of the criticism it’s getting is fair—but a lot of it feels like long-time players complaining about changes that don’t meaningfully harm the experience and, in many cases, actively improve it. For context, I’m not a diehard fan of the series. I played Monster Hunter: World, skipped Monster Hunter Rise, and came back for Wilds specifically because it addressed some of the friction points…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Having given it some thought, and having 100%'d it, Monster Hunter Wilds might be my least favorite game. I'm an old hunter. I started with Monster Hunter Tri back on the Wii and I love that game to bits. But I'm not some jaded old gen guy who hates everything new; Monster Hunter World is another of my favorite games, and though it had its issues, namely the uninteresting story and AWFUL endgame content, the game was still Monster Hunter at its core and I still enjoy playing World to this day.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Capcom, I'mma be real with you You do not need to charge 75 dollars for a digital OST I enjoyed the game I played, and I feel bad for people who suffered the lack of optimization, but the sheer greed and FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS worth of cosmetics and emotes is not a good look. Not to mention the cosmetic DLC pass is 50, when the game costs 70. My god. Edit 8/07/2026: lol. hey capcom where's my thirty bucks back. In all seriousness, though, it's just laughable. I've seen people fighting in…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not recommended and here's why As someone who has spent a few thousand of hours in Monster Hunter: World, Monster Hunter Wilds feels less like an evolution and more like a regression. The biggest difference is that World respected the hunt. You had to learn maps, track monsters, pay attention to footprints and environmental clues, and gradually master each locale. In Wilds, your Seikret automatically takes you wherever you need to go, monsters are immediately marked, and gathering materials…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game, still randomly crashes in 2026, over a year after the game came out.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Finally at a point where I can recommend the game to others. Sincerely hope they prioritize performance for the expansion to avoid another PR nightmare like Wilds had for a year.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The "not recommended" comes not from any issues with the game, combat design, or performance. I quite love offset attacks and wounds, I love the additions to the movesets of many weapons, not particularly bothered by the self-driving mounts, don't really have performance issues either. My specs (as seen below) surprisingly get me a fairly stable 60 fps (with like 50 fps lows at worst) most of the time at 1440p ultrawide on mostly max settings (no raytracing, FSR upscaling, no framegen, but…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played every game since MH3, with World being my favorite. I was ecstatic about Wilds being essentially World 2.0, but it has been largely a disappointment. Unfortunately, there's too many glaring issues to recommend the game. My gripes have nothing to do with performance. I had around 60 fps on launch, and after toying around/light modding to get DLSS and frame gen to work with my GPU, I had a consistent 80-120 at all times, which I was fine with. My disappointments were mainly with how much…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've been playing Monster Hunter Wilds and my thoughts largely parallel this review by @kazuma.bsky.social. It's a strange game, with unbelievably realized environments you're encouraged to ignore as you (literally) autopilot to the next fight. www.polygon.com/review/52731...
unlabelledView post →Probably one of my favorite Monster Hunter games, however if you use AMD graphic drivers you might end up crashing like I do. Let's put it this way when I boot up Wilds I'm not asking myself "Am I going to crash?" instead I ask myself "when am I going to crash" I have looked up several solutions and none of them have worked for me. to the surprise of absolutely no one, launching a game with the expectation of crashing is a really good deterrent to keep me off the game. if you want immersion and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Does owning DLC in the PC version of Monster Hunter Wilds really improve game performance? It sounds unbelievable, but it is true in select conditions - and a mod is already available that fixes the issue: www.digitalfoundry.net/news/2026/01...

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After a year it's still crashing randomly on AMD card. It's infuriating especially if it happened at last minute of the hunt.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →older monster hunter fans will try and convince you that this game is bad because its "too easy" and then when you go play gen u or another old monhun game the whole experience feels like getting your balls forcefully vaporized multiple times over because of how clunky and slow the controls feel. do NOT get mind controlled by them. Wilds is good. Focus mode is cool. The combat feels insanely smooth and intuitive. And NEVER let someone try and demean you cus u didnt start on some ancient…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sorry for whoever owns the SD because whoever says the game verified (which technically true) really hate their audiences because the graphic looks ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ abysmal. If it can't run with a decent experience, why bother to give people's hope and says its verified. Its disgusting from Capcom for those who owns the SD.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do not like the fact that because i got it at launch i get less stuff for a higher price with zero compensation Edit: for clarity i just mean anything lol, armor spheres or potions or something or maybe have the gold edition be a bundle instead of a package, or an option for an upgrade also like theres alot of other issues like performance though its getting better

unlabelledView post →I can't recommend this game given the current graphics bug with it that causes an instant crash on start. Until it's fixed no one should purchase the game even with the current sale.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought the Premium Deluxe Edition because I wanted to support the game, only to receive around 20% of the DLC that has been released. Even though the game has always had optimization issues that made my PC struggle, and despite the muddy graphics, I continued to support it because I genuinely enjoyed the game. I never left a negative review because I believed in what the developers were building. That's why the new Gold Edition feels like a slap in the face to early supporters. New players…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My biggest issues were performance & difficulty. Harder & harder hunts were added through the updates & the January Update fixed all my stuttering and massive frame drops on the "busier" areas of the game. I can finally give a positive rating. I just hope Capcom & the MH Team learns from this fiasco. Looking forward to the Expansion!

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Monster Hunter "It's Wild how bad it runs". Truly legendary gameplay with a really good environment held down by the genuinely atrocious optimization at play here. Worth getting either way but try to get it on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Monhun has always been a game about gameplay and less about graphics... But holy smokes what the fluck do I do when the game won't even load. I hate that this game that 10 million people cumulatively put a metric ♥♥♥♥ ton of money doesn't run at 60 fps without FRAME GEN. My imagination made up for the lack of pixels in the 3DS but it's 2025 man, come on. Get your ♥♥♥♥ together capcom
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly idk where to even start with this one. I wanna love this game so bad, like 10/10 love it, but Capcom is making it SO hard right now. First off, the actual game? Absolute fire. The combat is hands down the best it's ever been. They added this "Focus Mode" thing that lets you target wounds and it feels so crunchy when you hit those weak spots. The new weapons movesets are sick, and being able to switch weapons on the fly with the Seikret (the bird mount thing) is a game changer. The…

The game world is vibrant and many areas look very well done despite the somewhat washed out filtering going on throughout the game. I liked having the mounts to speed up travel time and it's neat watching them wall run and jump between obstacles. The new combat features were also pretty sweet, as a dual blade…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Now that all the content updates have been released, meaning the base game is effectively complete, it felt like a good time to revisit my thoughts on Wilds' base game. For some context, I've been playing Monster Hunter games since 3U released in 2013, and the first ~230 hours of my playtime on Wilds were built up in the initial two months after launch. To quickly summarize my most important thoughts: I think this is the strongest High Rank game we've ever had in the mainline series and one of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't mind the hyper-negative comments. This is the duality of Monster Hunter. The game starts easy, then gets hard. Its always been the way of things. It starts off for babies, because "what if they're new to our series?" and then gets "14-hour shift at the ball-crushing factory" hard near the end. The biggest thing that makes the game "easy" is the movement. But people are very fussy, and are EASILY baited by nostalgia. Hence why all the "veterans" are whinging and all the newcomers…
