Monster Hunter Wilds Patch 1.000.05.00 Fixes Quest Blockers, Among Other Things — but There Are No Performance Improvements Yet

Author : Anthony Mar 16,2025

Capcom has released hotfix 1.000.05.00 for *Monster Hunter Wilds* across all platforms, addressing several key improvements and bug fixes. While this patch tackles various progression blockers and glitches, it doesn't include performance enhancements. Despite this, and a "mixed" user review rating on Steam stemming largely from PC performance complaints, *Monster Hunter Wilds*' success is undeniable. The game achieved record-breaking sales, moving 8 million copies in just three days—the fastest-selling Capcom game ever. It also boasts the fifth-highest concurrent player count on Steam, peaking at a staggering 1,384,608 players—surpassing even *Dota 2*, *Cyberpunk 2077*, and *Elden Ring* on Valve's platform. This is a significant leap from *Monster Hunter: World*'s peak of 334,684 players.

A major title update is anticipated for early April, promising a new endgame area and expanded monster hunting content.
