Crashing on startup Issue

[ImSunny]

I bought this game about 2 months ago and had no issues the first few days playing it. Then out of no where I cant launch the game and get past the playstation logo. Ive tried most of the recommended fixes already such as deleting the video files for the logo and boot up, I verified the files, reinstalled the game multiple times, I waited for a new windows and driver update, ive disabled overclocking as well as any overlays I have. I didnt change anything to my pc so im just unsure why it randomly started crashing. Ive spent a good amount of time trying to fix any issues with no success.

Sometimes a gpu driver update will do this.
Either wait for the next update, usually a couple of days. Or roll back your gpu driver to the previous one where the game worked.

Another culprit is quite strange, but does cause the game to crash on start-up.
Bluetooth Audio.
Before starting the game, switch off Bluetooth audio at the motherboard. Start the game, then switch Bluetooth back on. It should then work fine, with audio.

If not, try going through this troubleshooter,

Have the same problem; i played for a week and this evening doesn't start anymore; i'm trying to figure out whats happening; i checked windows update and graphics logs, but nothing happened at least from the last two weeks, and yestarday was working.

I was able to fix mine it apparently was an issue with my headset, it depends on what youre using as your audio input, its such a random thing.

Bluetooth audio, either headsets or speakers, can do this. A really random glitch, isn't it?
However, the fix is straightforward enough. Switch off your bluetooth, start the game, once it's up and running switch your Bluetooth back on. Everything should work fine.
I don't know if you have to do this every time you start the game, or if it's a one off, or a periodic thing.
