Capcom says Monster Hunter Wilds performance improvements are arriving next week, but more PC-focused fixes will be coming in January

Monster Hunter Wilds palico.

It's been a long, hard road for Monster Hunter Wilds, but hopefully things will get a little lighter when its free Title Update 4 arrives next week on December 16. In a video published earlier today, Capcom outlined the additions coming in the final major Wilds update, including the returning elder dragon Gogmazios, new weapon and armor upgrade systems, and—crucially—improvements for the performance issues that have tarnished the game's reputation so badly that Capcom's own investors are using Wilds as shorthand for performance concerns.

Unfortunately, PC hunters will once again have to wait to see the full extent of the performance fixes Capcom has been promising since July. While Capcom says the Title Update 4 launch will implement multi-platform optimization improvements, additional performance fixes specific to the PC version won't arrive until January in a follow-up patch.
