Monster Hunter Wilds Patch 1.000.05.00 Addresses Quest Issues

Capcom has released hotfix 1.000.05.00 for *Monster Hunter Wilds* across all platforms, addressing several crucial issues and improvements. This patch tackles various progression-blocking bugs, enhancing the overall gameplay experience. While this update doesn't include performance enhancements, it's a significant step towards improving stability.

Despite some ongoing performance concerns reflected in the game's "mixed" Steam user reviews, *Monster Hunter Wilds*' success is undeniable. Its record-breaking launch saw 8 million copies sold within three days, making it Capcom's fastest-selling game ever. The game also boasts the fifth-highest concurrent player count on Steam, peaking at an impressive 1,384,608 players—surpassing even *Dota 2*, *Cyberpunk 2077*, and *Elden Ring* on Valve's platform. This is a substantial leap compared to *Monster Hunter: World*'s peak of 334,684 players.

An upcoming title update, expected in early April, promises a new endgame area and exciting new monster hunting challenges.
