Monster Hunter Wilds will show its best form at launch

Monster Hunter Wilds intends to be the new sensation in the popular action series and to leave far behind both Monster Hunter World and Monster Hunter Rise in terms of gameplay and graphics. Many players could give the game a try recently in a beta version of what will be the future game, which, according to Capcom, will be far superior in many aspects. With the release of the game scheduled for February 28, a new developer update video was released yesterday, revealing plenty of new details about Monster Hunter Wilds.

Several graphics modes and support for PS5 Pro

The latest pre-launch community update video has offered the fans a new opportunity to watch footage of the game and learn more information about it. While many details are discussed in the video, the most relevant highlight is the graphics performance of Monster Hunter Wilds. This is an important matter, especially for those who intend the game on consoles. For PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, Monster Hunter Wilds will feature two distinct modes. One will priorize graphics, with 30 fps and an output resolution of 3840 x 2160, and a rendering resolution of 3072 x 1728. The other mode will prioritise performance, allowing the game to run at 60 fps but with a rendering resolution of 1920 x 1080. Those resolutions will scale to 4K with the AMD FSR technology.

In the case of Xbox Series S, a single mode will be available, with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 and 30 fps. While the existence PS5 Pro enhancements have been confirmed, these have not been specified. As usual, the performance of Monster Hunter Wilds significantly varies depending on the hardware and settings, but you can expect the high-end configurations to be quite demanding in terms of hardware if you want the game to run smoothly.

The rest of the video focuses on additional gameplay details about different weapons and other aspects of the game that will be very interesting for seasoned players who want to compare Monter Hunter Wilds with its predecessors. Also, the developers have left a door open for a new open beta test phase ahead of the title's release, so you may have a chance to give it a try if you missed the first one.
