Steps to Minimize Blur in Monster Hunter Wilds on PC

Monster Hunter Wilds represents CAPCOM’s latest endeavor in the open-world gaming sphere, employing the powerful RE Engine. Much like Dragon’s Dogma 2, players have reported encountering technical issues, with the game depending on upscaling solutions to maintain stable frame rates across both PC and console platforms.

This reliance on upscaling inevitably compromises image clarity, particularly if you are gaming at 1080p resolution. Fortunately, there are several techniques available to enhance visual clarity and mitigate blurriness in Monster Hunter Wilds on PC.

NVIDIA RTX Users: Upgrade to DLSS 4

If you own an NVIDIA RTX graphics card, it’s highly advised to update to the latest DLSS version (DLSS 4).This upgrade significantly enhances image quality and minimizes the blur resulting from Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA).Below is a visual comparison demonstrating how the upgraded DLSS model performs, even at a 1080p resolution.

While Monster Hunter Wilds does not currently come equipped with this feature, an update is anticipated to include it in the near future.

Boost the Internal Resolution

For those with sufficient GPU capabilities, increasing the internal resolution of Monster Hunter Wilds can significantly enhance visual fidelity. Due to a lack of proper DSR/DLDSR support on PC, adjusting the Render Scaling slider is your best option, but this slider remains disabled without first turning off upscaling.

Begin by disabling upscaling to make the Render Scaling slider available.
Next, adjust the slider to a setting like 125% or 150% to see notable improvements. For even higher resolution, consider 200%, which will effectively double the resolution.

Note that increasing the internal resolution incurs a performance cost, as it elevates the overall resolution by the selected percentage.
Once you’ve set the resolution to a higher value, feel free to re-enable upscaling and frame generation. Regardless of whether you’re using DLSS, FSR, or XeSS, the resolution scaling will synergize with these technologies.

Turn Off Motion Blur and Depth of Field

Disabling Motion Blur and Depth of Field can be a game-changer, though it ultimately comes down to personal preference. These settings, found in the third column of the graphics options, can create significant blurring effects that affect overall image quality.

NVIDIA Users: Opt for DLAA

If your system is up to the task, consider opting for DLAA instead of the default Quality preset. Although DLAA demands higher system resources, it provides superior visual clarity and enhanced image reconstruction relative to other presets.

Alternately, both FSR and XeSS offer a “Native”quality preset that delivers considerably better image quality than their other upscaling tiers.

By applying these optimizations, you can substantially improve the visual clarity and mitigate blur in Monster Hunter Wilds. Additionally, if your GPU has enough VRAM, consider downloading the “High Resolution Texture Pack” to further enhance your gaming experience.
