Monster Hunter Franchise to End Windows 10 Support Soon
United Gaming – October 14, 2025, will mark a major shift for PC gamers. On this date, Microsoft officially ends support for Windows 10. For Monster Hunter fans, this change matters. Capcom announced it will no longer guarantee support for the franchise on Windows 10 after that deadline.
Square Enix had already announced the end of Windows 10 support for Final Fantasy XIV. Now Capcom takes the same step. The reason is clear: developers must align with Microsoft’s system updates. Staying with an outdated OS creates risks for both security and compatibility.
Monster Hunter games will remain playable on Windows 10. However, future updates may not work as intended. Patches or expansions could bring errors, crashes, or missing features. Capcom cannot guarantee full stability without Microsoft’s ongoing support.

Capcom explained its future stance for Windows 10 users. Players will only get access to pre-existing documentation. No troubleshooting or in-depth technical help will be offered. The message is clear: migrate to Windows 11 for reliable support.
This move highlights the pressure to switch to Windows 11. Many gamers hesitate due to hardware requirements. Others simply prefer Windows 10’s interface. Still, staying behind means risking compatibility issues. The future of PC gaming will move forward without Windows 10.
The decision sparked debates in online forums. Some gamers support the change, saying developers cannot maintain outdated systems forever. Others are upset, especially those whose PCs cannot run Windows 11. The shift has raised questions about accessibility in modern gaming.
Fans of the franchise face a choice. Staying on Windows 10 means potential issues in the future. Migrating to Windows 11 ensures stable gameplay and access to new updates. Capcom’s stance signals that upgrading is no longer optional but necessary.
