Hunt away, friends.

It's a good day for people playing Monster Hunter: World on the Xbox One. The game's matchmaking issues have finally been patched.

Capcom posted all its notes for the latest patch (1.03 on PlayStation 4, 1.0.0.8 on Xbox One) earlier today. Monster Hunter: World's woes on the Xbox One have indeed been addressed, "including 'Matchmake', 'Filter Search', 'Squad Sessions Session' and 'Respond to SOS'."

"C'mon, let's kill something alreadyyyyy!"

Other fixes for both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of the game include a patch for a bug that was keeping a few players from gathering research points correctly. Also, the update fixes an issue with the Hunting Horn that was preventing experts from performing their fancy-dancy moves correctly (and what's the point of using a Hunting Horn otherwise?).

Monster Hunter: World is available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It's coming to PC this fall.
