Horizon Walker: Black Screen (Fix)
Short answer
I feel like I had this happen on my PC (midline/potato, to be honest) - IIRC, what worked for me was when you are at the loading screen, do NOT click in the circle to load the game when it is ready. Instead, go to the Settings icon in the bottom right corner.
The problem
The game stay black screen after the "press to start" screen, I login with my google account because I used to play this game on mobile. There still blue cirle appearing when I click the black screen, and there are still pop up saying if I want to quit the game if I press ESC. I tried doing the delete the game appdata folder, redownload the game, vertify but nothing work so far. Need some help
