Monster Hunter Wilds Hit With Another Wave of Negative Reviews Amid FF14 Crossover

by

The recent collaboration between *Final Fantasy 14* and *Monster Hunter Wilds* has brought many players back to the hunting game, but it hasn’t been a perfect experience. *Monster Hunter Wilds* currently has ‘Mostly Negative’ reviews on Steam. Since launching in February, the game has faced performance problems and a lack of content, leaving many players frustrated.

Despite some challenges, *Monster Hunter Wilds* quickly became Capcom’s best-selling game ever, shipping 8 million copies in just three days. At Gamescom, fans were thrilled to hear about a crossover with *Final Fantasy 14*, which will add new outfits, a challenging boss fight against Omega Planetes, and the option to play as a Dark Knight or Pictomancer. While this new content brought some players back, overall feedback hasn’t been great, as the event isn’t addressing the game’s biggest issues.

Recent Steam Reviews for Monster Hunter Wilds Are Mostly Negative

Players of *Monster Hunter Wilds* are voicing their disappointment on Steam after the release of Title Update 3 on September 29th. Though the recent collaboration with *Final Fantasy 14* has been popular, many PC players are still experiencing performance problems and crashes. Currently, only 23% of reviews from the last 30 days are positive, leading players to advise potential buyers to wait for improvements. The game’s director previously stated that PC performance fixes are planned through 2026, but a timeline for these updates remains uncertain.

In addition to ongoing performance problems and negative player reviews, *Monster Hunter Wilds* hasn’t sold as well as Capcom hoped. While the studio is still working on new content, most players are prioritizing improvements to the game’s performance and stability, and many say they won’t play again until those issues are fixed in the coming months.

Capcom’s Monster Hunter fans received some disappointing news recently. Microsoft will stop supporting Windows 10 on October 14th, which could cause problems for players still using that operating system. This affects several Monster Hunter games, including Monster Hunter Wilds, Monster Hunter Rise, and Monster Hunter: World.
