Monster Hunter Wilds is a major hit, and it's also kind of a mess: It put up nearly 1.4 million concurrent players on Steam alone on launch day, a massive jump over Monster Hunter: World's peak of 334,684, and rocketed to eight million copies sold in just three days—the fastest game to hit that mark in Capcom history. It also has a rather ugly "mixed" rating on Steam, where only 60% of the user reviews are positive.
It's not unprecedented (we love Stalker 2, a game riddled with "errors, crashes, progress-halting bugs and at-times hilarious glitches in animation and AI") but it is a bit unusual—but it's not the end of things, either. Capcom says it's still cranking away on Wilds, and a new update will arrive early next week.
