Capcom seems to think that Resident Evil Requiem won't face the same fate as Monster Hunter Wilds when it comes to PC performance.
At the start of 2025, Monster Hunter Wilds seemed like a shoe-in for game of the year contention based on our Monster Hunter Wilds review, but now I'd be shocked if it gets more than one nomination for Best RPG to fill space in the category that Expedition 33 might win anyway. And even while Monster Hunter Wilds has some gameplay issues, the game's frankly terrible performance issues have really taken the wind out of its sails across the year. Given Capcom's attempt at a 2024 game of the year, Dragon's Dogma 2, also faced similar performance woes on PC, some are worried that this will be the usual for the developer going forward.
