Troubleshooting
Problem: Loading Doesn't Finish
For some people, the loading doesn't finish after they click the Play Game button. If you encounter this problem, you need to install the game using an MSIX package. For some reason, your system is incompatible with the unpackaged Steam version.
- For more information, please see Modern Windows Version (MSIX).
