AMD has been earning all the headlines for its hardware reveals during the first week of this new decade but now it’s time to get back into the gritty business of software and games. Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is the first big PC release of 2020, launching yesterday and rising rapidly to the top of the Steam charts. There has been significant backlash to Iceborne’s PC performance though, which is odd considering it’s just an expansion pack for Monster Hunter World.
Whatever the case, you’re going to want to be in the best position possible to run MonHun World: Iceborne and the Radeon Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.1.1 GPU driver welcomes official support for Capcom’s co-op hack ‘n’ slash. This driver contains all the last-minute performance tweaks and optimisations for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne DLC.
Aside from that, the 20.1.1 driver is all about a laundry list of bug fixes which primarily seem to be related to the major Adrenalin 2020 update which dropped just before the holidays.
