Monster Hunter Wilds’ PC requirements have been officially revealed by Capcom. Those who were hoping to skirt by on older hardware might be in for a bit of a shock as the new mainline game looks to be rather demanding. Take a look at the table below to see if your PC specs can reach the recommended hardware.

The Monster Hunter Wilds system requirements are surprisingly demanding. Players will need to have some pretty recent hardware if they want to hit the recommended specs (which allows for a comfortable 60 fps) and those with older gear will be limited to upscaled resolutions and 30 fps.

Additional Notes SSD required. This game is expected to run at 1080p (upscaled from 720 native resolution) / 30 fps under the "Lowest" graphics setting. DirectStorage supported. SSD required. This game is expected to run at 1080p / 60 fps (with Frame Generation enabled) under the "Medium" graphics setting. DirectStorage supported.

As you can see, you’ll need at least an NVIDIA RTX capable card if you want to hit 1080p at 60 fps – and this is just for the Medium graphical setting! Those who want to hit higher resolutions and frame rates will probably need some of the latest PC hardware on the market.

Even the minimum requirements necessitate a GTX 1660 Super, a card that was released about five years ago. Might our old 1080 Tis finally meet their match? The official product page from Capcom notes that the minimum requirements utilize upscaling to take a 720 native resolution to 1080p.
