Issues fixed

Crash during/after ending cutscene

  • During the ending cutscene, the game may crash immediately after Jacob appears, with an error message saying that "A problem has occurred with your display driver"
  • If that cutscene is skipped, the game may crash immediately after selecting "Continue" at the main menu.
Disable DirectX 12[citation needed]
The first time you play the game after finishing the main story, there will be a short conversation between Lara and another character; after this conversation, DX12 can be safely re-enabled.

Low FPS after crash

  • FPS may be very low even on a high powered system after crashing, with an error message saying that "A problem has occurred with your display driver"
Re-enable Fullscreen-Exclusive mode[citation needed]
You may need to remove "-nolauncher" from your Steam launch options to re-enable Fullscreen-Exclusive mode.
