However, that\u2019s not to say it was without any issues \u2013 the beta unfortunately gave some players doubts about the game\u2019s level of optimization, as they struggled with lower-than-desired framerates and (admittedly amusing looking) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fjust-beat-the-demo-it-was-fun-but-i-think-the-graphics-v0-wnoyenm068yd1.jpeg%3Fwidth%3D1920%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D85c75144aa38aacea689b3c6371bf6f5968887f6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">low-poly models<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Monster Hunter Wilds - Official Reveal Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GCVThKH4Xkk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, these concerns are being addressed as the game\u2019s February 28 launch approaches. Capcom recently held a preview event for Monster Hunter Wilds, showcasing a new version of the game that improves upon November\u2019s beta and includes some additional content. During the following joint media interview, Wilds\u2019 developers talked about the game\u2019s optimization and goals in terms of performance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yuya Tokuda, the director of Monster Hunter World and Monster Hunter Wilds, commented, \u201cWorlds was made to run at 30fps and above in its Resolution (graphics) mode, and we\u2019re also optimizing Wilds so that it can play at 30 fps and above in 4K in the Resolution mode on PS5. During the beta test, there were cases where rendering in the game\u2019s Framerate (performance) mode didn\u2019t function properly. Elements like hair and feathers especially stood out for their pixelated appearance and jagged edges, and we regret that players had to play the game in this state.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1493\" height=\"850\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1493px) 100vw, 1493px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241017-38562-header-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241017-38562-header-1.jpg 1493w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241017-38562-header-1-380x216.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20241017-38562-header-1-768x437.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tokuda goes on to explain that the latest version of Monster Hunter Wilds already improves upon graphics-related issues significantly compared to the beta version, and that the team is working on further improvements for the full release, focusing on optimizing both the game\u2019s Resolution and Framerate modes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monster Hunter Wilds is scheduled to be released on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (<a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/2246340\/Monster_Hunter_Wilds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Steam<\/a>) on February 28.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monster Hunter Wilds director Yuya Tokuda looks back on the game&#8217;s performance during the November beta and talks about future targets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":55,"featured_media":39029,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[17],"class_list":["post-40773","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-japan-related-news"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
