Same issue. Don’t have good enough internet speed to reliably reinstall to check, especially when I’m reading that’s not working for people. Also, was running in fullscreen mode last I played

This is happening to me as well. Stuck on the New World screen prior to actually getting into the game. Though it says it’s running.

Same issue. I get the sound of drum beating if I alt-tab, but it’s stuck at the first New World intro loading screen and I have to task manager to end it.
Edit: waiting didn’t fix it. Saw in another thread someone updated drivers, So I updated Nvidia drivers even thought I was only behind one version and it worked!

I had this problem in a previous patch and then again today. It freezes before showing the Amazon Games page. I just waited 10-15 minutes and it loaded up. It was much quicker the next time I had to load the game.

Okay, just got it to work. I had the overwolf map, and I uninstalled it and game started right up. Got me to at least character select but now I’m having different issues

I will try just waiting, I saw someone else said it took like 8 minutes, so maybe it’s just hanging up on some hardware issue
Edit: What worked for me was updating my nvidia drivers and restarting my pc after!
Confirmed, as soon as i closed overwolf the game launched.

I have the same drum thing when i alt+tab at the infinite new world loading screen. I did everything (verifying, restarting) now i reinstalling. Hope updating gpu driver with the reinstall fix this issue. I will update as i try.
Same here…
Also…when you click back into Steam… you see the stop button even after it is closed. Task manager doesnt show it active but steam thinks it is.

A buddy of mine had the same problem, it got solved by updating his graphics drivers
