The former will feature output/rendering resolutions of 3840 x 2160 / 3072 x 1728 at 30 fps, while the latter will provide 3840 x 2160 / 1920 x 1080 at 60 fps.

After the open beta of Monster Hunter Wilds, concerns were raised regarding the game’s performance, especially in the PC version. In the past, Capcom faced challenges with improving the PS5 performance of Dragon’s Dogma 2, and its subsequent PS5 Pro patch fell short. The proactive approach to developing the PS5 Pro patch for Monster Hunter Wilds before its launch is a promising sign that any potential issues will be dealt with effectively.
