Regarding its availability on Steam Deck, Monster Hunter Wilds is currently not verified for this platform, suggesting that its performance may not be stable. Users can use the assessment tool to simulate performance on the Steam Deck, and the results have shown that, for now, it may not be a suitable option for this device.

Lastly, some frequently asked questions include whether it is possible to run the game on a GTX 1080, to which the answer is no, as the minimum requirements start from the GTX 1660. For video memory, a minimum of 6GB of VRAM is needed for the GTX 1660 and 8GB for the Radeon RX 5500 XT. As the required specifications increase, so do the VRAM demands, reaching up to 16GB for Ultra configurations.
