Nightingale Not Working on PC Solution

Players can fix the problems with Nightingale not working on PC with the following techniques:

  • Close and reopen Steam
  • Run the game as the administrator
  • Verify your game file
  • Ensure that you meet all the required specs
  • Wait until the servers clear up

When on Steam, you can verify the game file by right-clicking on it and selecting Properties. Next, go to Installed Files, and you’ll see an option to ‘Verify this game’s files are installed correctly.’ This will help refresh the content to hopefully fix the Nightingale not launching problems.

Setting the game or Steam itself as the administrator could also help address the problem. However, you may need to ensure your PC’s specs work correctly for the file. You can see the minimum and required mechanics for the game via its Steam page to see if you have the right system.

Other than these procedures, your last resort is to wait it out. Early Access launches typically have bugs and errors involved, so users must download any new updates in the near future. Inflexion Games has indicated that they will continue to work on Nightingale for a better experience, possibly fixing the PC launch errors.

With that said, you can tune in on the latest updates on the game’s official Twitter/X, as they will likely announce updates for players.
