While Monster Hunter World creator Capcom has teased official information to be revealed regarding the game's much awaited PC release including Monster Hunter World PC's release date and system requirements, it appears that the latter has leaked via Tencent's WeGame platform. WeGame is Tencent's gaming platform for China and a product page on its site has details on the PC specifications for Monster Hunter World. While the page still has Monster Hunter World PC's minimum requirements, the recommended specifications appear to be missing, thankfully the Internet never forgets. If you were thinking that you'd need some brand new components to play Capcom's PC port of its PS4 and Xbox One smash hit, you can breathe easy. If the Monster Hunter World PC requirements are any indication, you'll be just fine with existing hardware.

When we played Monster Hunter World on PS4 Pro and Xbox One X we noticed very little amiss between both versions. Granted certain elements like the frame rate could be better, it’s still a good looking game regardless of your console of choice. Considering the level of optimisation developer Capcom has managed to achieve with past PC titles, we are optimistic to see what the PC version brings. Hopefully it's out sooner rather than later.
