Monster Hunter Wilds has taken the gaming world by storm, amassing an astonishing 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam within 12 hours of its launch! Talk about making an entrance!
According to SteamDB, this game is currently the number one seller. It has a ‘Mixed’ review rating from over 9,000 reviews. How wild is that?
The current player count places Monster Hunter Wilds in seventh place for concurrent players, with only 30,000 more needed to catch up to fifth and sixth place holders, Dota 2 and Lost Ark. Fridays are usually prime time for game releases, so it’ll be interesting to see how this number evolves over the weekend.
However, not everything is sunshine and rainbows. Many players are voicing their frustrations about performance issues and lack of optimization. Capcom has responded to these complaints on X (formerly Twitter), offering some troubleshooting tips for improving performance. They recommend updating graphics drivers, turning off compatibility mode, and adjusting settings as needed.
