Anime games often get overlooked, but there are plenty of gems out there that deserve a spot in any gamer's collection. The latest addition, *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls*, is facing some launch issues, particularly with crashing on PC. If you're experiencing this problem, here are some steps to help you get back into the action.
How to Fix Bleach: Rebirth of Souls Crashing on PC
In addition to the no sound bug, which causes the game to have no audio, some *Bleach* fans are struggling to progress past the tutorial due to frequent crashes. Even those who reach the story mode or attempt online play find the game failing to load properly, leading some to label it "unplayable." The good news is that a fix is on the way.
Ryan Wagner, Brand Manager for Bandai Namco, has confirmed that the team behind *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* is actively addressing the crashing issue. While no specific timeline has been provided, here are some temporary solutions to help you bypass the crashing problem on PC.
Restart the Game
Although it's not a foolproof solution, closing and reopening the game can sometimes resolve the issue. This method is quick and easy, so you can try it multiple times without losing much time. If the problem persists, however, you might need to explore other options.
Restart the PC
If your PC is struggling to run the game, a restart might be in order. Take a break, power down your system, and give it a fresh start. While you wait, you can catch up on some *Bleach* anime episodes—even the filler ones have their charm.
Run the Game as Administrator
Some players have reported that this method doesn't work, but it's still worth a shot. Here's how to do it:
- Right-click on the *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* shortcut.
- Select "Properties" and navigate to the "Compatibility" tab.
- Check the box next to "Run this program as an administrator."
Delete and Reinstall the Game
If all else fails and you can't wait for an official patch, consider deleting and reinstalling *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls*. While the game is large, reinstalling might temporarily resolve the issue and allow you to at least complete the tutorial.
