Heyo @RAY_Raizy

I had a similar issue in the past on my XSX console. What it turned out being was that some audio assets could not be loaded fast enough, causing critical failures during play.

I’m no PC expert, but it might be worthwhile to check the physical connections of those portions of the motherboard, in addition to verifying your audio drivers/settings. Sometimes new drivers can break the game due to them not yet being supported because of recency of release. In these cases, rolling back a version can help.

For the most part, if a game crashes without an error, it’s because of core assets failing to load. If the issue persists after the above, it might be worth trying migrating the files to another drive, as you have mentioned having multiple. Additionally, verify that the drive being used is high-priority for loading, as it might just be being suppressed by another’s call.
