Capcom has withdrawn its planned technical presentation on Monster Hunter Wilds optimization from Japan's upcoming CEDEC 2025 conference. This decision follows increasing reports of harassment and threats targeting the development team working on the acclaimed action RPG.
Technical Deep Dive Canceled Unexpectedly
The canceled session promised an in-depth examination of performance optimization techniques using Monster Hunter Wilds as a case study. Developers were scheduled to analyze CPU/GPU workload balancing and memory management approaches.
The sudden withdrawal notice provided no official explanation, but industry observers quickly connected this move to ongoing player dissatisfaction - particularly surrounding the PC version's technical performance. While Capcom has acknowledged these issues and committed to improvements, some community responses appear to have crossed reasonable boundaries.
Recent Title Update 2 delivered promised optimizations, though player reports indicate mixed results. Capcom subsequently addressed several outstanding technical concerns via official communication channels.
Capcom Takes Stand Against Harassment
The company recently issued a formal statement condemning unacceptable behavior directed at staff members. According to reports, developers have endured targeted harassment through social media and customer support systems, including personal threats against individuals.
Capcom emphasized its commitment to protecting employees, warning it will pursue legal measures against severe harassment cases. While maintaining openness to constructive criticism, the publisher drew a firm line against abusive behavior.
Monster Hunter Wilds continues receiving post-launch support, with Title Update 2 introducing new combat encounters that players are enthusiastically embracing - particularly the fan-favorite Lagiacrus hunt.
