Monster Hunter World is all about self-expression as you go about hunting monsters and various other creatures across gorgeous landscapes. You get to create your own character, pick how they look, choose your own weapon, flourish in your own playstyle, and more.

If you wish to go further, there are also mods that you can install that allow you to customize your experience further. These mods range from something as simple as a visual tweak to more complex stuff, such as cheat codes and weapon unlocks. In this list, we shall discuss the five best Monster Hunter World mods you need to know about. 

1) Skippable Cutscenes Mod

Monster Hunter World has several cutscenes that interrupt the flow of gameplay. For whatever reason, Capcom had a thing for unskippable cutscenes from 2017-2019, and the very same issue plagues Monster Hunter World. While it may not be as frustrating as, say, Metal Gear Solid 4, it can still be aggravating if you’re just trying to get through the game uninterrupted. The Skippable Cutscenes mod, created by Moonbunnie on NexusMods, solves this very issue and lets you skip through over an hour of cutscenes in the game. 

2) Performance Booster and Plugin Extender Mod

While Monster Hunter World is a fairly well-optimized game, as is the case with most of Capcom’s recent products, it still leaves a lot of room for improvement. The Performance Booster and Plugin Extender Mod by AsteriskAmpersand on NexusMods improve the game performance on CPU-constrained systems by “removing swathes of extremely unoptimized code that is ultimately irrelevant to the game functioning.” This allows you to run the game even better if you’re on relatively older hardware. 

3) SmartHunter- Overlay

While the Monster Hunter World UI is as close to perfect as it gets and serves the game’s purpose, it leaves some information ambiguous. The SmartHunter – Overlay mod by r00telement on NexusMods tweaks the game’s UI to display all the information you could possibly need when taking on a monster. The overlay displays “monster health, parts, status effects, crown, team damage, player buffs/debuffs and equipment/weapon buffs.” The information provided helps you strategize better and gives you the edge in battle. 

4) Extra NPCs In Astera Gathering Hub

The Astera Gathering Hub is a location you’ll be frequently going in and out of as you play Monster Hunter World. However, this location isn’t too functional when it comes to the multiplayer aspect of the game. The Extra NPCs In Astera Gathering Hub, created and uploaded by MHVuze on NexusMods, adds extra NPCs to the area that not only breathe much-needed life into the hub, but also bring in shops. The merchants and shopkeepers being added make the area viable. 

5) All Items In Shop For Iceborne Mod

The shops in Monster Hunter World allow you to purchase items that aid you in battle. However, not all items are available from the get-go and instead need to be unlocked by progressing through the game. The All Items In Shop For Iceborne Mod by bi88y on NexusMods unlocks all the shop items. This gives you early access to items and eliminates the need to progress to unlock. This lets you purchase the items you need and bypass any roadblocks along the way.
