How to fix crashing issue in Gray Zone Warfare

The crashing issue in Gray Zone Warfare has been bothering players ever since the game went live. There have been several patches in the past that targeted the crashes, and the problem has even been mitigated to an extent. However, it is still quite bothersome. Recently, the developers pushed Hotfix 0.1.2.3 which specifically aims at resolving these errors.

According to the developers, the latest update has disabled Unreal Engine 5's Lumen Async Compute. This was one of the suspected causes for the game crashing on multiple occasions. So, this hotfix should completely get rid of any crash that might have occurred due to GPU-related issues.

However, the developers have mentioned that the crashes may persist, despite the latest patch. Fortunately, they have provided a workaround for those who are still facing issues.

In this quick guide, we'll take a closer look at the official fix for the crashing issue in Gray Zone Warfare.

Guide to fixing the crashing issue in Gray Zone Warfare

If the crashing issue in Gray Zone Warfare persists even after the latest Hotfix, the developers recommend turning off FSR and using DLSS instead. However, DLSS is exclusive to Nvidia GPUs and if you don't have one, you can use TSR as well. All these features can be found under GZW's graphics settings.

Here's how you can change these settings in GZW:

• Go to the Gray Zone Warfare Settings.
• Select the Graphics tab.
• Scroll down to the Advanced section.
• Find the Anti-Aliasing/Upscaling method.
• Use the arrows to change this setting to either DLSS or TSR.

This should prevent the crashing issue in Gray Zone Warfare and your game should work perfectly fine now. Moreover, it is recommended that you turn on GPU Crash Debugging, as this will help developers pinpoint the reason for these crashes.

GZW has some pretty high hardware requirements and they can end up using a lot of PC resources. If you're still crashing, make sure you at least meet the minimum system requirements.

Check out the section below for the official minimum and recommended system requirements for GZW.
