Capcom president Haruhiro Tsujimoto has said the “PS5 barrier” is limiting Monster Hunter Wilds’ success, with the high price of Sony’s console and the game itself putting off younger players. The title sold 10 million copies in its first month, but Capcom admits the cost has impacted growth compared to past entries. To combat this, the company has already run limited-time discounts, such as a 20% sale in June. Tsujimoto also noted the surprisingly strong response to Nintendo’s Switch 2, sparking speculation about a potential port despite no official plans. The franchise has deep ties to handhelds like Switch, though Wilds’ performance issues on current platforms may complicate such a move. Interestingly, most sales so far have come from PC, even though Capcom originally positioned PS5 as the game’s main platform. #capcom #playstation #monsterhunterwilds #gaming #ps5
