Though War Mongrels is an amazing game, there are certain issues that the players are facing right now. One of the most commonly reported issues is that the game crashes upon launch.
It has just been a week since the game was released, and the crashing issue has become a sure frequency with many players. If you are facing the same crashing issue, here is what you have to do –
CHECK YOUR PC
If War Mongrels often keeps crashing to the desktop, try to reduce the quality of the graphics. It is possible that your PC may not have the recommended or minimum specifications that are required to run the game, for which the game keeps crashing. Also, look out for the updates available in your rig. Playing on an outdated PC may not be the right choice. So keep your rig updated.
VERIFY THE GAME INTEGRITY
You can verify the game integrity of War Mongrels in your system. It happens mostly that the game is not able to run because of some corrupted files or missing files. Using the verification process, Steam will scan all the game files and fix any corrupted files associated with the game.
DISABLE YOUR ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
The antivirus programme in a PC is one of the biggest reasons why a game does not start. The antivirus programme stops or restricts a lot of games from launching and running, this leading to crashes. So try turning off your antivirus while playing. Or you can add the game files to the exception folder of the antivirus.
