Can't even get past the photosensitivity warning without the game closing itself.

If running AMD download the new driver 26.5.2 from AMD's site, this resolved it for me.

check that DirectX is updated and your have latest drivers for you gpu/laptop.

To open the DirectX Diagnostic Tool (dxdiag) in Windows 10/11, press Windows Key + R, type dxdiag, and press Enter. Alternatively, type dxdiag into the taskbar search box and select the result. The tool allows you to check your DirectX version, display drivers, and audio components

If not reporting correctly. Re download DirectX (google it) and re install.

Get your gpu drivers from AMD or Nvidia if running desktop gpu.
If running laptop. Get them from your manufactures website

I'm having this same issue with the same specs

says something about driver timing out when I boot the game and can run it for like 20 seconds before it crashes. tried reinstall, verify integrity, old driver recommendation from devs, updated to latest drivers, ran DDU in safe mode, uninstalled chipset drivers and installed all back, then tried sfc scannow with DISM health check as well. Still no luck don't know what else to try

for me its saying gpu crash dump triggered

[art223]

Mine said previous save had a issue or check to see if my graphics were compatible after a while of messing with it it worked hopped off went to bed shaped to steam deck cloud wasn't updated so hopped back on pc to update the cloud save bam back to either my save didn't save or graphics can't handle it error

How to? There is no option before startup the game. Could you provide a little manual for us?
