Capcom and TiMi have announcedMonster Hunter Outlanders, a new open-world survival game on mobile devices. Unfortunately, fans can’t stop discussing the rough performance issues inits debut trailer.
The massive worlds of the Monster Hunter franchise have been brought to smaller systems in the past.
The most notable example beingMonster Hunter Now, which mimickedPokemon Go’sformula, rather than being a mainline game experience.
Monster Hunter Wilds Open Beta Schedule and Content Revealed
Monster Hunter Wilds Open Beta Test is due this month, and here’s the schedule and what content players will be treated to.
A new Monster Hunter game has been announced for portable devices. The debut trailer for Monster Hunter Outlanders (as seen on the GameTrailers YouTube channel) attempts to create a full-fledgedMonster Hunter experience.
“Attempt” is, unfortunately, the correct term, as the comments section cannot get over the poor framerate of the Monster Hunter Outlanders trailer.
Monster Hunter Outlanders Is Looking Rough On Android & Apple Phones
Whenever the hunters use their glider to traverse the environment, the Monster Hunter Outlanders framerate also takes a plunge.
The same slowdown is also present when the hunters slide down a cliff. It seems any accelerated movement is causinghuge performance problemsfor the game.
These kinds of framerate issues aren’t too surprising, considering the kinds of devices that they’re intended to run on. Most mobile phones aren’t exactlygaming beasts, which is why certain genres work better on the platform.
This raises the question of why such a graphically ambitious title was made. An even bigger question is why the debut trailer looks so rough.
“Oh well, you know it’s the real deal when the Phone is begging for its life when running it.”
It’s not like gamers are struggling for portableMonster Hunter content, especially considering the series first blew up on the PlayStation Portable.
Anyone who wants a proper portable Monster Hunter experience can have it viaMonster Hunter Riseon theNintendo SwitchorSteam Deck.
It’s possible that Monster Hunter Outlanders is just in an early state, and its issues will be ironed out before launch. It certainly wouldn’t be the first game to do this.
Performance is key for anaction game, as visual spectacle and smooth combat are part of the experience. Monster Hunter Outlanders might look pretty, but if it can’t sort the framerate, then it may as well stay in the camp.
