Hi @Savbio,

I’ve checked your logs and can see two GPU’s for your system

  • Intel UHD Graphics 620
  • NVIDIA GeForce MX150

Unfortunately, both of these are below the minimum requirements for Darktide, and this is subsequently resulting in these crashes when launching.

Darktide Minimum Requirements are:

  • Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
  • OS: Windows 10 (64 bit) / Windows 11 (64 bit)
  • Processor: Intel i5-6600 (3.30GHz) OR AMD Ryzen 5 2600 (3.4 GHz)
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 OR AMD Radeon RX 570
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 50 GB available space

Regrettably, I can only recommend submitting a refund request through Steam. Apologies for any disappointment.
