    Monster Hunter Wilds runs at a stable 30FPS on Switch 2, but Capcom calls the port a painstaking process

    Capcom producer Genki Sunano told Kotaku that the Switch 2 version of Monster Hunter Wilds was built around delivering a natural Wilds experience rather than a scaled-down port, describing it as a painstaking and at times seemingly endless process. The version launches on 5th December with all free DLC updates including new monsters and local co-op support, and runs at a solid 30FPS in handheld mode even during taxing multiplayer hunts. Capcom plans to apply what it learned to performance improvements for existing platforms ahead of Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance in 2027.

    Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave's Early Game Is So Filled With Non-Major Battles It Puts Me to Sleep

    Two weeks into Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, the game's first part feels poorly paced, with hours of training and dungeon delving between story missions that can put players to sleep. Developing all four lords equally could mean 15-30 hours of this slog before things get more action-focused in part two. The clash and dungeon-crawling mechanic is the main culprit: clashes are mindless turn-based fights with paper-thin enemies that can be handled via auto-attack, though a few narrative clashes like Dietrich's bounties show their potential.

    Capcom says porting Monster Hunter Wilds to Switch 2 was a painstaking rebuild

    Capcom producer Genki Sunano told Kotaku that the Switch 2 version of Monster Hunter Wilds was not a simple scaled-down port but a rebuild aimed at delivering a natural Wilds experience on the console, targeting a stable 30 FPS in handheld mode even during four-player hunts. The team evaluated assets and underlying processing one by one, rebuilt certain assets and shaders, and kept new visual effects aligned with existing hitboxes and collision detection. Sunano said the process was painstaking and at times seemingly endless, and that the lessons will feed into performance improvements for existing platforms ahead of Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance. Monster Hunter Wilds comes to Nintendo Switch 2 on December 4.
