Like most titles, Monster Hunter Wilds allows players to prioritize graphics or framerate. As you can expect, each choice will emphasize the selected choice while sacrificing the other. Many gamers, especially Monster Hunter players, prefer to focus on framerate over graphics, but this isn’t the case for everyone.
Alongside the information for Monster Hunter Wilds on PS5 Pro, Capcom revealed the specs players can expect on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC. Players can expect similar settings with Xbox Series X, having the option to prioritize graphics or framerate. Those on the Xbox Series S will not have the option of being locked into a single available setting.
Those playing Monster Hunter Wilds on PC will need to look to their own device’s specs. With a variety of gaming PCs and laptops, different components and hardware, Monster Hunter Wilds’ performance and graphics will be much more varied than those playing on console. There are no plans for Monster Hunter Wilds to be released on Nintendo Switch, but there may be a surprise release on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
Monster Hunter Wilds gave players a first look through the open beta, leaving players with concerns about performance. Releasing performance information but noting they are still working on improving it, is a good way to garner support and increase hope among fans. Combining this with the fact that Monster Hunter Wilds will have crossplay proves that Capcom is trying to do right by fans. Regardless of where you plan to play Monster Hunter Wilds, fans can expect the classic gameplay the series is known for.
