Monster Hunter Wilds Open Beta Comparison Highlights PlayStation 5 Pro Version Hitting 80 FPS in Performance Mode

A Monster Hunter Wilds open beta comparison video was shared online, highlighting how much the PlayStation 5 Pro can brute force better performance in unpatched titles.

The comparison, which was put together by ElAnalistaDeBits, also confirmed the target resolution and performance on each system. On Xbox Series S, the beta featured a single display mode targeting 1080p resolution, which ran at an average of 40 frames per second; on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, the beta targeted 1080p resolution and ran at an average of 50 FPS in Performance Mode, 2160p resolution running at an average 50 FPS in Resolution Mode. Without a dedicated patch, the Monster Hunter Wilds beta targeted similar resolutions on PlayStation 5 Pro but ran better than on the base model, at an average of 45 FPS in Resolution Mode and 65 FPS in Performance Mode, reaching even 80 FPS in certain scenarios, but sometimes dipping below 60 FPS, which is to be expected for an unoptimized beta. Much like on PC, performance on consoles was very unstable in all display modes, and the reduction in texture, terrain detail, lighting, and draw distance in Performance Mode wasn’t enough to achieve the stable 60 FPS a game like this requires.

Being an open beta likely based on an old build, there’s a very good chance Monster Hunter Wilds will run much better at launch. Besides the hopeful performance optimization and improvements, the game’s launch version should offer quite a bit for hunters to sink their teeth into, as revealed by datamined information.
