Game Crashing After The Update
Hi, after the recent update my game is crashing every 10 minutes and i don't know why. Is anyone else having this problem too?

My PC specs:
RTX 5080
Ryzen 7 7800x3d
32 gb ram ddr5 6000MHz (2x16)
SSD NVME M.2 gen 4

FOUND FIX FOR RTX 50 series:
reinstall the the last nvidia driver of the month of March (572.83 version) and you'll be fine.

POSSIBLE FIX FOR RTX 40/30/20 series:
- install the nvidia driver version 566.36

i am actually having the same issues too. ive tried reinstalling my graphics drivers, deleting the shader cache, and also lowering graphics settings and those dont seem to be helping at all. hoping someone has a fix!

I don't use mods, but i updated my gpu driver recently, i'll try deleting the shader.cache2 file and revert to the previous gpu driver and report back here.

It seems both suggestions don't work, unfortunately

I have same situation yesterday but after reinstall the MAR ver. driver, the crashing problem is solved.
Like people before me already mentioned.

Anyone with a RTX 50 series card needs to revert to FEB/MAR GPU drivers for now.

Thats what is causing the crashes in most cases.

RTX 30 series cards are reporting really bad frames since the latest GPU driver update.


If the game still doesnt run after you reverted your GPU drivers find the FEB/MAR version online and do a clean re-install of the drivers.

Delete shader.cache in the games folder too so its forced to compile them again.


This *should* work for the mentioned RTX cards.


//EDIT: I cant remember which month the previous GPU driver released so i adjusted it to FEB/MAR.
As long as you dont have the april GPU driver version it *should* work.

//EDIT2: This is for NVIDIA cards ONLY.

What about for 20 series cards? I started randomly crashing before the hotfix that fixed a lot of crashing issues and I was suddenly able to play the game fine again yesterday then today its just crash after crash. I was on the Nvidia 572.83 drives and updated to the recent drivers to see if that would fix it but now my game crashes on launch..

All i know is that the april GPU drivers are faulty in some way. When i skimmed the issue through google yesterday i saw a lot of mentions for the 50 series with occasional reports on the 30 series.

I havent looked since and for the most part reverting seems to have helped for now.

You can try google the issue for yourself and see if there has been any updates on it.

I had the same issue. Reverting worked, but I wanted to test something another user on Reddit said. With the latest drivers, setting the power limit to 95% with no overclock has made it stable for me.
revert back to 572.83 work for me ,latest driver for 5000s card crash instanlty

Thank you everyone who suggested to revert nvidia driver, the version that worked for me is the 572.83 version :mhwgood::mhwilds_OK:

I downloaded the 576.02 Driver update for my 5090, which "supposedly fixed crashes when Frame Gen was enabled." Game crashed while talking to the supply cat. Turned off frame gen, did 1 Zoh Shia hunt and now the game crashes every 10 minutes or so. I'll try going back on the driver update (which didn't crash with frame gen turned off)
Running 5070ti, saw someone with same GPU reported crashing when they updated to the latest April drivers. Apparently the 40x series aren't having issues?

Decided to update it myself, and about 15mins after updating, game keeps freezing on me. I was literally playing on hours earlier before I updated.

All issues are gone when I reverted back to 572.83 (March Release). I didn't need to delete my game's shader cache when I reverted, but it might be a good idea to do so anyways.
