Capcom’s 2025 title is facing backlash as user reviews on Steam continue to decline, with fewer players choosing it over Monster Hunter World. According to recent Steam data, Monster Hunter World has around 16,000 concurrent players, while Monster Hunter Wilds has about 10,000. This disparity in player numbers suggests that fans are returning to the older game due to performance issues and disappointment with the endgame content in Wilds.
Steam reviews for Monster Hunter Wilds have been overwhelmingly negative, citing frame rate issues, an unsatisfactory story, and inadequate endgame content. Some players report that the game won’t start on their computers, further exacerbating the problem. Unlike its predecessor, which received some criticism but not to this extent, Capcom is expected to address these issues during the upcoming Spotlight showcase stream.
Players and critics alike acknowledge that Monster Hunter Wilds has potential in refining the formula, but ultimately, it seems the game needs significant updates to live up to expectations. With a new update on the horizon, fans are eagerly awaiting improvements to endgame content and performance.
