How to Fix DirectX 12 Error in Halo Infinite

I have good news and bad news for you. The good news is that if your PC is capable of running Halo Infinite at all, then the DirectX 12 error fix in Halo Infinite is actually quite simple. The bad news is that if these fixes don’t work, you might be out of luck.

The key thing you need to do first is ensuring that all of your drivers are up to date. This is the most common problem that plagues PC gamers when they start up a new game for the first time.

Generally, your bottom right toolbar will have a shortcut to your graphic card maker’s portal where you can download drivers from. However, if you have trouble finding that you can find links to the two most common graphic card makers, Nvidia and AMD where you can download from their website instead.

Next, make sure that you have the latest version of DirectX installed on your computer. By visiting this Microsoft link, you can download the .exe file needed to run the installation.

If neither of those options work, your last option is to contact customer support for either your computer manufacturer or Microsoft themselves and have them walk you through the official PC specs for Halo Infinite and see what might be going wrong.

Hopefully, that helped you sort out the DirectX 12 error for Halo Infinite on PC. If you’re still having trouble try reaching out in the comment section and perhaps we can find someone that can try and offer you some more specific tips.
