In this tutorial we show you how to fix Warzone 2 crashing and not launching error for Steam and Battlenet. There are several causes that can be causing Warzone 2 to crash giving different solutions. One reason the Warzone 2 not launching error may occur is due to outdated graphics card drivers. Updating your drivers can solve issues with Warzone 2 crashing or not launching. This can be done through the device manager or by using GeForce Experience if you have an NVIDIA graphics card.
Often when Warzone 2 crashes you will receive an error message. These solutions scan solve dev errors and scan and repair Warzone 2 issues.
Another solution for the Warzone 2 crash error is to change in game settings. Some in-game settings can result in stutter, lag, glitching and crash issues. By turning off the parallax effect and on-demand texture streaming you can solve errors causing Warzone 2 to crash.
A simple method to solve Warzone 2 errors is to play with the display mode set to fullscreen exclusive. This will typically help run the game better preventing issues from occuring. If you’re experiencing lag or glitching in Warzone 2 this may also help solve your issue.
Additionally, moving the Warzone 2 game file can solve crashing errors in Warzone 2. Both Steam and Battlenet versions of the game are moved differently, however, the process is simple.

When you play Warzone your PC may not be getting enough power or cooling resulting in Warzone 2 crashing.
