Capcom later released another update on the performance issues faced by players in Monster Hunter World Iceborne. For those who are experiencing heavy CPU usage, they recommend to try capping the frame rate to “60” or “30” under Options -> Display -> Frame Rate.
Capcom will release another patch for the PC version that will allow users to “fine-tune and set an optimal frame rate cap to better match the individual PC’s capabilities.” This latest update doesn’t appear to target performance issues and “hitches” which might be fixed later. It is a priority fix for the developers and they are working on it.
