ERRORS WHEN TRYING TO PLAY 💥

The Black Heart Soundtrack · published 17 Jan 2025, 19:01 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello everybody, how are you? How did you start 2025?

We are aware of some troubles that are ocurring recently in The Black Heart when you try to play the game from the Steam library. You can easily fix this by playing the game from its directory and opening the "TheBlackHeart.exe" file.

To find that directory, you need to right click the game from the Steam libreary > Properties > Installed Files > Browse...


The errors when trying to play the game from Steam are probably related to a recent Steam update which has troubles with the current version of the engine The Black Heart is using.

We're trying to fix that but it requires some external work since its related to the engine, not the game. In the mid time, you can continue playing the game from the directory like we said above.

We're sorry for these, but it's something that exceeds us and we've been told about it this week. We have already contacted Steam, but didn't get any response yet.

Cheers from the team, have a great year!

Tobías and Andrés
