Anime games often face criticism, but there are several gems that deserve a spot in any gamer's collection. The latest addition, *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls*, is currently experiencing some launch issues. Here's a detailed guide on how to fix *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* crashing on PC.
How to Fix Bleach: Rebirth of Souls Crashing on PC
In addition to the no sound bug, which causes the game to play without any audio, many *Bleach* fans are struggling to progress past the tutorial due to crashes. Even those who manage to reach the story mode or attempt online play are facing issues with the game failing to load properly, with some labeling it "unplayable." However, hope is not lost, as the development team is actively working on a fix.
Ryan Wagner, Brand Manager for Bandai Namco, has confirmed that the team is aware of the crashing issues and is "Looking into it." While no specific timeline for a solution has been provided, here are some immediate steps you can take to potentially resolve *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* crashing on your PC.
Restart the Game
While it's not a guaranteed fix, simply closing and reopening the game can sometimes provide the necessary reset. This method is quick and can be repeated without significant time loss. If the crashes continue, however, you might need to try more comprehensive solutions.
Restart the PC
Sometimes, a PC needs a break to function properly. Shutting down your system can help resolve underlying issues. While your PC reboots, consider catching up on some episodes of the *Bleach* anime—even the filler episodes are worth your time.
Run the Game as Administrator
Although some players on Steam have reported that this method doesn't work for them, it's still worth attempting. Here's how to do it:
- Right-click on the *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* shortcut.
- Click on Properties and navigate to the Compatibility tab.
- Select "Run this program as an administrator."
Delete and Reinstall the Game
If all else fails and you can't wait for the official patch, consider deleting *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* and reinstalling it. While the game is large, reinstalling might resolve the issue long enough for you to at least complete the tutorial.
These steps should help you address *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* crashing on PC. For more on the series, check out all the arcs in order. *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* is currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
