Anime games often face skepticism, but there are gems among them that deserve a spot in any gaming collection. The latest contender, *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls*, has encountered some hurdles during its launch, particularly with crashing issues on PC. If you're struggling with *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* crashing on your PC, here's how you can attempt to fix it.
Alongside the no sound bug, which results in no audio in the game, some *Bleach* fans are encountering crashes during the tutorial. Even those who progress to story mode or attempt online play can't get *Bleach: Rebirth of Souls* to load properly, with some deeming it "unplayable." However, there's hope on the horizon as the development team is actively working on a fix.
Ryan Wagner, Brand Manager for Bandai Namco, has confirmed that the team is aware of the crashing issues and is "Looking into it." While no specific timeline for a solution has been provided, there are some steps you can take to potentially circumvent the problem in the meantime.
Restart the Game
Although it's not a surefire solution, simply closing and reopening the game might provide the necessary reset. This method is quick and easy to try multiple times without significant time loss. If the crashing persists, however, you might need to explore more in-depth solutions.
