You just wanted to play BLEACH Rebirth of Souls. Instead, you got a red screen that looks like your monitor is trying to warn you about a nuclear meltdown. Don’t worry—this isn’t a permanent curse.

Set BLEACH Rebirth of Souls to High Performance Mode
Bandai Namco actually addressed the red screen issue. They suggest this setting change:
Go to Settings > Display > Graphics Settings.
Find BLEACH Rebirth of Souls in the list (or add it by browsing to the game’s .exe file).
Click Options > change from Automatically select on Windows to High Performance.
Hit Save.
This tells your system to stop slacking off and actually run BLEACH Rebirth of Souls on your real graphics card.
Manually Select Your Graphics Card (Yes, Again)
This fix worked for a ton of players. Windows loves to pretend your integrated GPU is good enough. It’s not.
Open Graphics Settings again.
Add BLEACH Rebirth of Souls if it’s not already listed.
Click it > Options > choose your dedicated GPU (like RTX 4070 Ti) > Save.
Red screen? Gone. Suddenly, the game works like it should have from the start.
Update Your Graphics Drivers
Old drivers + new game = disaster. Head over to NVIDIA or AMD’s site and download the latest drivers. One player said BLEACH Rebirth of Souls worked after doing this and the GPU settings, so do both and cover your bases.
Use Compatibility Mode (Time Travel Optional)
Still cursed with red? Try compatibility mode:
Go to BLEACH Rebirth of Souls’ install folder (Steam > Installed Files > Browse).
Right-click the game’s .exe > Properties > Compatibility tab.
Set it to Windows 7 or Windows 8.
Also check Run as Administrator.
Sometimes BLEACH Rebirth of Souls just vibes better with the past.
Bandai Namco Wants Your Crash Reports
If BLEACH Rebirth of Souls still crashes after all this, Bandai Namco wants help fixing it. If you’re sending in a report, they want:
Your Windows edition, version, and OS build.
Which graphics quality setting you’re using: Quality, Balanced, or Performance.
Helpful? Maybe. Will it speed up patches? Probably not. But hey, at least they’re asking.

Final Blurb
BLEACH Rebirth of Souls dropped on March 21, 2025, for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC—and PC players have had a time. If you’re stuck with the red screen, try forcing high performance mode and updating your drivers. If it works, great. If not, you can always stare at the red screen and pretend it’s just a very abstract loading screen.
