Monster Hunter Wilds is set to be released for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. A technical issue with the PC version is set to be resolved.
What was the problem? The PC version of Monster Hunter Wilds struggled with some technical issues. Both the character and monster textures couldn’t load properly, causing them to appear as low-polygon creatures.
Players took it with humor and shared images of the crazy monsters on social media. In addition to the broken models, there were also performance issues with the game. According to Yuya Tokuda, the director of Monster Hunter Wilds, at least one thing is set to be fixed in the final release.

The PC version of Monster Hunter Wilds is expected to be on par with the console version in one aspect
In what aspect will the PC version improve? At a playtest event attended by our editor-in-chief Leya Jankowski, various media outlets were able to try the game on PS5. The performance was reportedly much better than in the open beta version.
This raised the question of how the final game will perform on PC. As Tokuda revealed, the PC version is expected to experience the same performance improvements as the PS5 version, especially in terms of frame rate. This means that players on PC and PS5 can expect a similar frame rate:
To speak specifically about performance: I hope you agree with me that it felt significantly better than what we had in the open beta; that was an older version. This has already been improved. However, we are still working on it. We are working on both the PC version and the PlayStation 5 version simultaneously. And I can promise that the performance improvements for the PC version are just as impressive as those for the PlayStation 5.
The director is aware that both the monsters’ hair and fur weren’t very pretty. PC players can therefore expect the monsters to look even more beautiful than in the open beta.
PC players can therefore breathe a sigh of relief that the performance will improve considerably by the release and the monsters will look even more beautiful. MeinMMO has listed which monsters are present in Wilds in a separate article: Monster Hunter Wilds: All known monsters on the list
