Although Monster Hunter Wilds boasted a strong start after its release in late February with a whopping 10 million sales in under three months, things have slowed down quite a bit for the action RPG – and Capcom president Haruhiro Tsujimoto cites an interesting potential reason.
At the tail end of July, we reported that Monster Hunter Wilds sales dropped from millions to under 500,000 in mere months. We brought up the game's plummeting Steam reviews, which largely boiled down to poor PC optimization (an ongoing issue as reported by players, sadly) – but that might not be the only reason behind the recent Monster Hunter game's falling sales or longtime series fans' lack of interest in giving it a go.
