Monster Hunter Wilds Update 1.042.00.03 Fixes AMD Crashes and Network Errors
Capcom has shipped another stability-focused patch for Monster Hunter Wilds. Update 1.042.00.03, which went out on October 27, 2026, does not add new monsters or gear, but it closes out two issues that have been dogging the PC version since Title Update 4 brought the Elder Dragon Gogmazios into the game.
What the Patch Fixes
The update resolves a crash affecting some AMD graphics cards during extended play sessions, and fixes communication errors that were disrupting multiplayer sessions in certain network environments. Capcom is not treating this as a content update — it is squarely a bug-fix and stability pass layered on top of the existing Title Update 4 content, which added Gogmazios hunts, new high-rank quests, and Gogma Artian Weapons.
Driver Recommendations
Alongside the patch, Capcom is recommending hunters keep their graphics drivers current: NVIDIA GeForce 581.57 or newer, and AMD Radeon 25.9.1 or newer. Players on recent AMD Radeon drivers in the 25.10.x range should also watch for reported issues on certain cards, including the RX 5500 XT and RX 7800 XT, while Capcom continues to iterate on compatibility.
Picking Up the Hunt
If you have been holding off since launch, Monster Hunter Wilds is available now on Steam, with the PC version noticeably more stable than it was at launch thanks to patches like this one.
