Monster Hunter: World - Iceborne Title Update Roadmap

If you’d like to know what Capcom has in store for their co-operative action-RPG Monster Hunter: World, you should take a look at this Twitter announcement that shares the game’s title update roadmap for 2020. Important to note, that according to this roadmap, the game’s console and PC versions will sync up in May. Have a look:

And if you’re playing the game on PC, you might be interested in the patch notes for patch v10.12.01 that was supposed to imporve the game’s CPU usage and fix its save game issues.

[Summary of the bug fix]

- The patch fixes an issue where the save data would not properly convert to the new file format if the player save data and the game hasn't been updated post Kulve Taroth Update launch on October 30, 2018 (UTC 23:00).

*For those with save data timestamped before October 30, 2018 (UTC 23:00), any customization done to the key configuration will be reset to its default value after applying the new patch.

**The November 22, 2018 (UTC 0:00) Title Update added a customizable keyboard setup. If you convert from a save data that is timestamped before this November Title Update, the following error message will be displayed.

Failed to load keyboard setting
presets. Data is corrupt.

This is non-issue and can be safely ignored since the user-generated custom configuration data did not exist in the pre-patch save data

- The patch should improve (lower) CPU utilization during active gameplay. Please note the level of improvement may vary and is dependent on individual user's PC configuration and hardware component.

Please note the patch will update MONSTER HUNTER WORLD: ICEBORNE to Ver.10.12.01.

Our sincere apologies for any inconvenience this issue may have caused.

Important:

Matchmaking in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne requires players to have updated to the same version. Keep in mind that you can only match with other players who have the same update. You can verify the version number in the bottom-right corner of the title screen.

Here’s some additional information:

[Developer Update]

We've received some community feedback noting that in some cases, there was limited to no improvement in CPU utilization after applying the Ver.10.12.01 patch that was published on January 17, 2020 (UTC 0:00).
  • While the dev team will continue investigating the matter, we would like to suggest that those who continue experiencing heavy CPU usage try capping the frame rate to "60" or "30" under Options -> Display -> Frame Rate. This may help alleviate the issue or reduce overall CPU usage.
  • We will also add additional frame rate cap options in a future Title Update that will allow users to fine-tune and set an optimal frame rate cap to better match the individual PC's capabilities.
  • Please note that Patch Ver.10.12.01 is not intended to solve frame rate performance issues and "hitches" that are occurring for some users.

    This is one of the priority issues the dev team will continue looking into, and progress will be shared in a future message update and patch release.
Once again, our sincere apologies for any inconvenience this issue may have caused. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
