Hello Dead Rising fans,

First and foremost, I’d like to thank all of you for your patience and tons of helpful feedback you’ve provided while the dev team worked on resolving the crashing issues.

The team has been working very closely with NVidia to find solutions to the crashes that have been affecting certain Nvidia users, and now we are happy to announce that the new 344.11 WHQL driver released today should address most of these problems.

We’ll follow up with additional details soon, but in the meantime please update to the latest driver linked below and give DR3 another spin. It is also highly recommended that you restart Windows upon installation to ensure proper driver initialization.

Note: the new driver set also includes an updated version of GeForce Experience (Version 2.1.2.0) which now recognizes Dead Rising 3 and includes optimized settings/profile for the graphics chip.

Laptop users: please ensure Dead Rising 3 is utilizing the Nvidia chip through NVIDIA Control Panel.

Open NVIDIA Control Panel and select Manage 3D settings in the left window pane.
In the right window, select the Program Settings tab
Select or Add Dead Rising 3 (deadrising3.exe) from the pull-down menu
Select either ‘Use global setting (Auto-select: NVIDIA GPU)’ or ‘High-performance’ NVIDIA processor’
Click the Apply button and close the NVIDIA Control Panel.

Thank you,
