Capcom rushes to fix game-breaking Monster Hunter Wilds bug blocking story progress

Capcom says it’s investigating a game-breaking bug in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Monster Hunter Wilds was released on Friday, and almost as soon as the PC version was in the public’s hands, players reported issues with optimization, performance and more.

The game has received praise from fans outside of the performance issues, however, smashing through one million concurrent Steam players on launch night.

Now, a game-breaking bug has been found that can make forward progress in the story impossible.

The issue comes from the fact that in an unknown number of instances, a vital NPC won’t appear where they are supposed to. For spoiler reasons, we won’t reveal which character may not appear, but if you’ve made it as far as chapter 5-3, you can rest easy knowing that this issue hasn’t impacted your game.

Capcom has yet to reveal the cause of the issue, but it says it is working on a fix. It’s unknown if the patch that was released late on Saturday was the cause of this issue.

Capcom posted the following on social media early on Sunday: “Hunters, we are currently investigating the following issue. There may be cases where an NPC does not appear, disabling story progression in Main Mission: Chapter 5-2 A World Turned Upside Down.

”We are currently working on these issues and will provide further updates when we have them.”

Capcom has also responded to performance issues faced by PC players of Monster Hunter Wilds.

VGC’s five-star Monster Hunter Wilds review, which was played on PS5 Pro, calls it “a victory lap for Capcom’s golden age”, concluding: “Monster Hunter Wilds is confident, bold, and one of the best Monster Hunter games ever, thanks to its ability to stand on the giant shoulders of Worlds and improve it in virtually every way.”
