New Monster Hunter World PC patch out on October 30th, fixes low-resolution textures, improves keyboard controls


Capcom has announced that the third PC patch for Monster Hunter World will be released on October 30th. According to the developers, this patch will fix the low-resolution texture issue that PC gamers experienced in cut-scenes and character creation, will add HDR Mode in the Display Settings and will bring various keyboard setting adjustments, including different key assignments.

Furthermore, this patch will add the Kulve Taroth Siege which will be available for a limited period from Friday, November 2 at 00:00 a.m. (UTC) until Thursday, November 15 at 23:59 (UTC).

From the looks of it, Monster Hunter World appears to be selling well on the PC. After all, Capcom would not be improving the game’s keyboard controls in case the PC version was already dead (sales-wise). Those interested can also read our full review for Monster Hunter World here.
