Monster Hunter Wilds Reaches All-Time Peak of 1.3 Million Steam Players in Just 24 Hours

On Steam, the game “Monster Hunter Wilds” attracted a staggering 1,307,976 players simultaneously, setting a new all-time high for the platform. This record was also the highest number of players in a single day, as the game was only recently released on February 28th. (SteamDB charts indicate this data.)

Despite achieving a record-breaking high in player count on Steam for Monster Hunter World, the game has received numerous negative reviews. This backlash is primarily due to gamers experiencing technical problems with the PC version and complaining about poor optimization.

Following its release, players can anticipate temporary event quests offering special armor as rewards within Monster Hunter Wilds. Additionally, there are planned post-launch updates for the game, starting with the initial free title update in April. This update will reintroduce the monster Mizutsune and offer new event quests. Furthermore, a second title update is scheduled for summer 2025, which will introduce a new monster and additional event quests.

The action role-playing game, “Monster Hunter World,” has been released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, accompanied by a day one update of approximately 15 GB. Final Weapon magazine awarded “Monster Hunter World” a score of 4 out of 5, praising it as an outstanding addition to the established series and a fitting successor to Capcom’s all-time best-selling game. Although there are some performance issues, Capcom has managed to create one of the most satisfying combat systems in “Monster Hunter World” while also introducing the franchise’s first genuine storyline.

Enthusiasts can rejoice as they mark the debut of the latest game with the continuation of the crossover between Monster Hunter Now and Monster Hunter Wilds, lasting until March 31st. During this special occasion, Chatacabra from Monster Hunter Wilds will be spotted in desert regions following the completion of a short-term mission known as an Urgent Quest. The collaboration offers unique prizes such as an exclusive Seikret Rider layered attire, Weapon and Armor Refining Parts, along with Zenny.
