Capcom gives Monster Hunter producer Ryozo Tsujimoto a significant promotion following the record-setting launch of Monster Hunter Wilds.

Monster Hunter Wilds has sold over 8m units in just three days, setting a new record for Capcom as its fastest selling game. The game was released last Friday, 28th February, and on its first day reached a concurrent player count on Steam of over a million within its first day.

Capcom has issued official advice for PC via Steam players of Monster Hunter Wilds after the game launched to a ‘mixed’ user review rating due to performance issues.
