Monster Hunter Wilds, the next installment in the beloved Monster Hunter franchise, is set to release on February 28, 2025. As a successor to Monster Hunter World, it promises to be the most advanced and thrilling entry in the series yet. Players on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation can already experience a taste of the action by participating in the beta test, though many have raised concerns about the game’s performance on PC.

FPS Drops, Lags and Stutters in Monster Hunter Wilds Beta Test

Steam discussions reveal mixed experiences with Monster Hunter Wilds beta test. While some players are happy with the performance, even on less powerful computers, others are frustrated with frequent stuttering and crashes, drawing comparisons to the troubled launch of Dragon's Dogma 2. This has led to worries that optimization problems might persist into the full release.

Keep in mind that performance issues can be caused by a range of factors, especially given the vast number of possible PC setups. If you're facing major FPS drops, start by updating your graphics card drivers and disabling any background apps or overlays. Next, try adjusting the games graphic settings, as the default options may not always be optimal for your PC. Disabling or lowering settings like Anti-Aliasing, Water Effects, and Shadow Quality can create a smoother visual transition. These can be demanding, particularly during the game's dynamic weather changes.
