Ghost of Tsushima PC Crash Fix

Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut has made a significant impact on the gaming community following its PC release, reaching impressive peaks of over 75,000 players engaged simultaneously. Although it enjoys strong popularity, the game is not without technical hiccups that can lead to crashes or lags. Fortunately, there are troubleshooting methods to potentially resolve these challenges.

Troubleshooting Steps Include:

  • Game File Verification
    • A routine method among Steam users is validating game files through the platform, which can rectify many game-related glitches or issues.
  • Graphics Settings Adjustments
    • Modifying certain graphical settings can enhance stability:
      • Deactivate Frame Generation: This setting is intended to smooth out frame rates but may contribute to performance issues.
      • Turn off Upscaling: Reducing the visual load on the GPU by disabling Upscaling might improve performance.
  • Interface Modifications
    • Disabling PlayStation Overlay: Anecdotal evidence suggests the PlayStation Overlay can cause technical issues. To disable it:
      • Access the Program Data folder on the primary drive.
      • Navigate to Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.
      • Erase the PSPC_SDK folder.
      • Afterward, initiate the game in offline mode.

Should these techniques be unsuccessful, patience may be required while anticipating an official resolution from the developers. Speculation suggests that the complications might be linked to Nexes Software, which was responsible for the PC adaptation, but a definitive solution is likely forthcoming as the developers address the concerns.
