Capcom announced via Steam that it will be ending Windows 10 PC support for three Monster Hunter games due to Microsoft ending support for that version of the operating system. The three games affected are the mainline titles Monster Hunter Rise, Monster Hunter Wilds, and Monster Hunter World. Both Monster Hunter Stories games won’t be hit by this, as there are no notices on pages for either one. Everything gets cut off on October 14, 2025.

This doesn’t mean all three Monster Hunter games will be immediately unplayable on Windows 10 systems. Rather, Capcom sounded an alert that they could start no longer working after that date. This is because future updates will be geared toward OS such as Windows 11 and beyond. As such, as long as you don’t update the games, you should have no problem playing them on older PCs past the time support ends.

This appeared alongside a Monster Hunter Wilds video and graphics drivers alert. Capcom noted some people are experiencing issues with certain graphic cards. As such, it told people to make sure they are at AMD Radeon Series 25.2.1 or later and NVIDIA GeForce Series 580.88 or better.

Monster Hunter World is on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Monster Hunter Rise is on the Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC, Monster Hunter Wilds is on the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and Windows 10 PC support for all three games ends on October 14, 2025.
