Earlier today, Capcom released update 11.5 for the PC version of Monster Hunter: World, bringing new content to the game. The main addition in the update is the new monster Rajang. Capcom says that Rajang will be very challenging to take down, even for experienced hunters.
Additionally, the PC version of the game also got some PC-specific upgrades, including increased frame rate options, camera tweaks when using keyboard and mouse, and much more.
The 11.5 update comes in at roughly 2GB. Those who like the increased texture fidelity will have to spare an additional 1.9GB to install the high-resolution texture pack. Check out the full patch notes for Monster Hunter: World here or read them below:

- Added two options for mouse and keyboard controls: "Aim Cancellation (Melee)" and "Aim Cancellation (Ranged)". These options determine whether or not entering item selection mode will cancel aiming mode.
- Changed the way camera control priorities work for mouse and keyboard controls. Previously, even when playing with mouse and keyboard, the game would prioritize gamepad shortcut controls when opening item selection mode with any "Item Control Settings" option other than "Type 3". Now, as long you don't click the middle mouse button to open up the gamepad shortcuts, the game will continue to prioritize camera controls.
