Black Myth Wukong Not Starting - Intro Crash, Freezing, Black Screen Fix

Black Myth Wukong is here and it seems that majority of gamers enjoy the title, as in the moment of writing this text the game has 90% positive reviews. However, not all players can enjoy it. Some of them report issues like stuttering, crashing or being not able to start the game due to freezes. Let’s talk about these issues and try to fix them.

Black Myth Wukong – Intro (cutscene) crash

It is difficult to fix all of the above issues, as they are of different roots, so let’s talk about them one by one. It seems that the most people who have a crash during the intro sequence use AMD graphics card. It may suggest some drivers problems.

1. Some people report that they have managed to fix the issue by updating all drivers.
2. The above is not the only working solution though, as strange as it may seem, lowering graphics is also a valid option, as players claim that it helped them, too.
3. Lastly, you can try turning off Frame Generation.

If you are an AMD user, and neither of the above solutions worked for you, it is possible that you will have to wait for the release of new drivers.
