Monster Hunter Wilds Fans Hope Typo Fix Boosts Performance

Mar 03, 2025 5:29 PM

In a recent dive into the performance of Monster Hunter Wilds on PC, players discovered a typo in the game's config file where "resolution" was misspelled as "resoltuion." Upon fixing this error, some players reported a slight increase in frame rates, jumping from around 120 FPS to 140 FPS. However, caution is advised as these improvements could be coincidental, with some users theorizing that the change might lead to the game defaulting to lower settings instead of genuinely enhancing performance. The community remains eager for further optimization as the game continues to attract significant attention and a record player base on Steam. An upcoming title update is expected to launch in April, offering new content alongside potential fixes.

Can fixing a typo actually improve game performance in Monster Hunter Wilds?

Some players have reported a slight performance boost after correcting a typo in the game's configuration files, but there's debate on whether this change genuinely impacts performance or if it's merely a placebo effect. Without official confirmation from Capcom, it’s advisable to approach such modifications with caution.

Monster Hunter Wilds, the latest entry from Capcom, has generated buzz for its engaging gameplay and record-breaking sales. This action RPG follows the franchise's legacy of monster hunting, allowing players to embark on quests solo or cooperatively. Building on the series' mechanics, players can select from a variety of weapon types and engage in thrilling battles against legendary creatures. Its popularity has underscored the demand for continued updates and optimizations to enhance the gameplay experience on PC.
