Anime games often get a bad rap, but there are definitely some gems out there worth adding to your collection. *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* is the latest to hit the scene, but it's not without its launch issues. If you're experiencing *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* crashing on PC, here's how you can tackle the problem and get back to enjoying the game.
How to Fix Bleach: Rebirth of Souls Crashing on PC
In addition to the no sound bug, which leaves the game without audio, some *Bleach* fans are struggling to get past the tutorial without the game crashing. Even those who manage to reach the story mode or attempt online play can't get *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* to load properly, with some labeling 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 aware of the crashing issue and is "looking into it." While Wagner didn't provide a timeline for the solution, there are some workarounds you can try in the meantime to potentially resolve the crashing on PC.
Restart the Game
While it's not a surefire solution, closing and reopening the game can sometimes provide the reset it needs. You can try this multiple times without losing much time. If the issue persists, you might need to try a more involved approach.
Restart the PC
Sometimes, a PC needs a break to get a game working properly. Turn off your system and step away from your desk. While you wait for your PC to reboot, you can catch up on some episodes of the *Bleach* anime—even the filler episodes deserve some love.
Run the Game as Administrator
Although some *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* players on Steam have reported that this method doesn't work for them, it's still worth a shot. Here's how to do it:
- Right-click on the *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* shortcut.
- Click on Properties and navigate to the Compatibility section.
- Select "Run as Administrator."
Delete and Reinstall the Game
If none of the above solutions work and you can't wait for the developer's patch, you can try deleting *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* and reinstalling it. It's a large game, but if you're willing to wait for it to reinstall, there's a chance it might resolve the issue long enough for you to at least get through the tutorial.
And that's how you can fix *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* crashing on PC. If you're looking for more, here are all the arcs in the series in order.
