Crashes immediately on startup

[Emygra]

When I launch the game, I hear half-a-second of some audio playing before it cuts out and the screen stays completely black. I don't have any modified settings on my RTX 3070, my computer and graphics card are up to date, and I don't have any other conflicting software like Afterburner. I honestly can't think of a reason why it won't load. Does anyone know of a solution?

I get the exact same problem even though the regular portal RTX boots fine

Same happens to me and I don't have an OC on my 3090. Just black screen and crash.

I also get this error. I have updated my drivers and OS. I've tried to run with commands that force a lower resolution. I got nothing :(

I am running linux and I found a helpful fix on another board. Put this in the game's launch options

VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr11 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 gamemoderun %command%

Same. I updated my Geforce experience driver, but I still get a black screen as it fails to respond.
Anyone found a fix yet?
