However, optimism is in the air as reports suggest that the upcoming Title Update 4 will deliver over 100 performance enhancements. Fresh comparison videos from CAPCOM indicate these upgrades could be a game-changer.
Performance Enhancements in Title Update 4
The newly released comparison videos show the performance of Monster Hunter Wilds before and after Title Update 4 across three monster battles: Arkveld, Xu Wu, and Lagiacrus. These tests were conducted on two system configurations to give players a clear picture of what to expect:
First Configuration

- GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 (VRAM 8GB)
- Resolution: 1080p (Upscaled) *AMD FSR: Performance

The updates reveal significant improvements in average FPS, jumping from roughly 40 FPS to about 50 FPS in the battle against Arkveld, on both configurations. This boost, combined with enhanced stability, is set to make gameplay smoother for PC players.
