Are you having problems with The First Descendant crashing? Then you’re not alone. Several gamers are reporting crashes, with The First Descendant telling them their system is out of video memory, despite having a powerful GPU with no shortage of VRAM. This problem appears when the game is compiling shaders, and it’s one we’ve seen before. Rather than being a problem with your GPU, it’s much more likely to be down to you using an Intel CPU.
Released on July 2, The First Descendant is based on Unreal Engine 5, and this engine has proved to be particularly problematic for some of Intel’s best gaming CPUs, particularly the Core i9 14900K. Game crashes on Intel CPUs have been reported for a number of games based on the engine, often with similar errors relating to a lack of video memory when compiling shaders.
