Fixes - Fixed an issue that unintentionally included certain characters as prohibited words. - Fixed an issue where the game would be forcibly shut down when trying to reinput a name when the name had a prohibited word included.
We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused to our players.
Thank you to all of our players for your continued support of Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. For other questions, please visit the official Monster Hunter World: Iceborne support portal below. http://www.capcom.com/mhwsupport/
[Notice] Please see the details below for the recent fix patch.
■ Bug Fix We've fixed an issue from Ver. 15.20.00, where certain icons and textures would not display properly if the "High Resolution Texture Pack" was installed. If you already have the "High Resolution Texture Pack" installed, its data (roughly 9 GB in size) will be downloaded again upon booting up the game.
We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused, and thank you for your continued support.
With the arrival of update Ver 15.20, we’re pleased to share that Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is now officially Steam Deck verified!
Steam Deck Hunting!
This means that Monster Hunter World: Iceborne has achieved the following Steam Deck benchmarks:
All functionality is accessibly when using the default controller configuration
The game shows Steam Deck controller icons
In-game interface text is legible on Steam Deck
The game’s default graphics configuration performs well on Steam Deck
The team are excited to have this verification confirmed and live, we hope that hunters who play Steam Deck have a ton of fun hunting on the go, wherever they are!
Latin American Spanish Support
We’re also pleased to share that alongside Steam Deck verification, Latin American Spanish support is also now available for any players that wish to use it!
That wraps up today’s post! Thank you all for your continued support and passion for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, we hope you enjoy these new features!
How’s the hunting? We hope Astera and Seliana are treating you well!
Following on from our Capcom Online Program at Tokyo Game Show last week, we’re humbled and excited to share with you that March 2024 will mark 20 years since the release of the very first Monster Hunter game in Japan.
To you, our global community of hunters, thank you!
As we begin to mark the occasion, the team have created a special Monster Hunter 20th anniversary logo featuring one of the key things that defines our identities as hunters, our weapons!
To coincide with the logo reveal, we’ve also got our first piece in the 20th anniversary art series to share with you, putting a spotlight on hunters!
Can you spot any of your favourite sets in there?
There will be more announcements for the 20th anniversary in the future! We’ll be sharing details on these across our official channels, including our official website and Twitter account, so make sure to stay tuned there!
