Monster Hunter Wilds recently introduced a crossover update featuring a new raid boss from Final Fantasy 14, but it also unearthed players’ frustrations regarding long-standing technical issues, causing severe drops in its Steam reviews.

Current Status of Reviews

• Following the update on September 29, 2025, over 80% of the 5,000 reviews generated were negative. Overall, the game has received a rating of ‘Mixed’ on Steam, but this recent wave of feedback points to the underlying performance problems.

One player expressed, “The game is fun but completely overshadowed by the technical issues, which have been here since day one.” (Translation: “El juego es divertido pero está completamente ensombrecido por los problemas técnicos, que han estado aquí desde el primer día.”)

Many reviews echo a common complaint: the game has not improved since its launch in February of the same year, leading to increased dissatisfaction. Players are hoping for the promised performance improvements that Capcom has indicated will come by winter, but concerns remain about the game’s stability.
