Monster Hunter Wilds update today (10th March): What changes in the patch notes?

Approximately ten days have passed since the debut of Monster Hunter Wilds, and its creator, Capcom, has rolled out a fresh update – Version 1.0.05.00 – to tackle several problems that have been bothering the game.

While a portion of gamers might anticipate tweaks for game balance in this update, the main focus of the release is primarily aimed at resolving bugs.

In the initial two weeks after its release, the game has enjoyed immense popularity, but it’s also been marred by subpar performance and glitches. Some of these issues have since been fixed.

What changes are in the Monster Hunter Wilds update today (10th March)?

In this updated version, several glitches within the primary narrative have been addressed, thus eliminating problems like players accidentally passing through the game environment or specific non-player characters being invisible, along with erroneous quest displays on the quest log.

In the game, issues related to its combat system have been fixed, including instances where specific skills triggered unexpectedly in certain situations, and cases where skills failed to work as intended when the right conditions were met.

In the recent game update, there’s an adjustment that significantly impacts Gravios. Before the update, Gravios didn’t acquire flinch immunity upon breaking its parts. However, this issue has been rectified now, and in addition to that, the resistance of Gravios has been subtly modified as well.

Capcom has admitted to problems such as network glitches during SOS flare launches and incomplete side missions, and they’re currently working to resolve these issues.
