Attempted all troubleshooting steps listed in the Installation and Launcher Issue Solutions guide. Windows is fully updated. Tried a clean installation of GPU driver. Disabled anti-virus and ensured program is allowed in firewall. Even tried going to the launcher.exe file and running it as Admin but it always crashes before loading the initial screen.

I’ve passed this on to our developers. Thank you!

Finally got the game to run after repairing windows. Seems like the issue was due to a corruption in the .net frameworks files.
