Hyper Scape Vulkan Error Explained

The Vulkan error appears to be directly related to your graphics card drivers. This is often the case with new games, where new drivers must be installed in order to make the game play on your system. If you don’t have the latest graphics card driver, you won’t be able to play.

Fixing the Vulkan Error

If you have an NVIDIA card, you’ll want to make your way over to the Vulkan Driver support page. Here, you’ll find direct download links to ensure your graphics card is updated and ready to play Hyper Scape.

For AMD video card owners, you’ll want to navigate over to the official AMD support page and select your video card from the dropdown. You’ll then find download links for all the necessary drivers or updates your card might require.

Once you’ve updated your graphics card drivers, restart your PC and load it back up. With a bit of luck, you’ll no longer have the Hyper Scape Vulkan error and you’ll be free to dive into the game hassle-free.

If you’re still having issues with the Vulkan error in Hyper Scape, try completely shutting down and restarting your PC. If this fails again, you may need to try reaching out to Ubisoft via Reddit or Twitter and see if they can provide additional troubleshooting assistance.

Hopefully, we’ve helped you get past the Hyper Scape Vulkan error and you’ll now be free to enjoy the zany Battle Royale action that awaits. For more on the game, be sure to search for Twinfinite or check out more of our coverage below.
