Monster Hunter Wilds launched with several optimization issues, notably a problematic ultrawide display feature that doesn't function correctly on compatible monitors.

The ultrawide display bug causes gray bars to appear at the screen edges instead of properly utilizing the full ultrawide display. This issue stems from the game using a 21:9 aspect ratio rather than the standard ultrawide ratio of 43:18.

Current Status and Upcoming Fixes:

• No official fix announced by Capcom yet
• March 10, 2025 update will address "multiple bugs and known issues"
• Early April 2025 Title Update 1 will bring additional updates, new monster Mizutusne, event quests, and cosmetic DLC

Temporary Solutions:

• REFramework mod (available on Nexus Mods)

  • Restores ultrawide support
  • Works with 32:9 and other aspect ratios
  • Note: Some users report crashes every 30 minutes

• Flawless Widescreen mod

  • Alternative solution
  • Available on the official Flawless Widescreen website
