New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on February 02, 2022) follows:
If you are into massive multiplayer online role-playing games, you must have heard of Neverwinter at some point in time. Released in 2013, the game is developed by Cryptic Studios and published by Perfect World Entertainment.
The video game is based on the Forgotten Realms city from Dungeons and Dragons. Players can choose from eight classes and unlike normal MMO games, it focuses more on campaign instead of fighting against one another.
Ever since its release, developers have released numerous updates to the game that bring in new content and features called modules.
While the game is pretty stable, many Neverwinter players who play the game on console are reporting (1,2,3,4,5) freezing and crashing issues.
That being said, Neverwinter developers recently released the NW.135.20211219a.15 patch, but it looks like the update hasn’t fixed the crashing and freezing issues.
Players are frustrated and are wondering if the developers will fix the aforementioned issues. Below are some rants from players who are unable to play the game.
As it turns out, Neverwinter developers are aware of the crashing and freezing issues and said that they are currently investigating the matter. However, they did not share any ETA on when the problems will be fixed.
We hope the developers find a solution and fix it as soon as possible since the game is unplayable for console players right now.
As always, we will let you know once more information is available so make sure you keep checking this space for updates.
