There are a lot of things for players to find in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, but a few fans have already discovered an issue that appears to be overheating some PlayStation 5 consoles.Players on Reddit (via Push Square) have shared multiple accounts of Death Stranding 2 apparently causing PlayStation 5s to overheat when the map menu is called up on-screen. Fans have reported that the map causes the PS5 fan to loudly go into overdrive before they receive an overheating warning from the console itself.The working theory among players is that the map menu is running with an unlocked frame rate, which may be causing the PS5's overheating issue. So far, no one has reported the same issue on PS5 Pro, but at least one user shared a video on YouTube that demonstrates the map menu's effect on their PS5 multiple times. Presumably this issue can be addressed in an update from Kojima Productions once it becomes aware of the problem.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Monster Hunter Wilds players on PC have been making their displeasure known on Steam by leaving a string of bad reviews over some performance issues with the game. The number of concurrent players has dropped so rapidly that Wilds' predecessor, Monster Hunter World, has a higher count. Today, Capcom is attempting to address PC players' issues as part of the massive Free Title Update 2. The publisher has also shared a glimpse at the next two free updates beyond this one. While Free Title Update 2 doesn't make any changes to Wilds' minimum or recommended system requirements, the Steam version has been adjusted to amount of VRAM used in texture streaming to lower the amount of VRAM overall. One of the bug fixes will also make the Estimated VRAM Usage display the correct amount in Display Settings and Graphics Settings.It's too soon to say whether these changes alone will turn things around for Wilds on Steam, but Capcom notes that further performance and optimization improvements are still in the works. Across all platforms, Free Title Update is adding two new monsters, Lagiacrus and Seregios, as well as underwater combat.Continue Reading at GameSpot
