Key points
- Game requires a CPU with support for the POPCNT instruction. A CPU under the system requirements won't have this and thus won't work, although this can be worked around.
- All PC versions of the game only allow the streaming of the live-action episodes. They can't be downloaded (as with the XBoxOne), thus it isn't possible to view them offline or with a bad internet connection. [3]

Issues fixed
Jack wearing an eyepatch
- Playing the Microsoft Store version while signed out of the Store app triggers this issue.
Open the Store app and sign into the Microsoft account that owns the game before playing[7] |
---|
Nvidia SLI support (Steam version)
- SLI support can be set manually for the Steam version (up to 95% scaling).[8]
Use Nvidia Inspector[8][9] |

POPCNT instruction
- Although the developers state that POPCNT instruction is required[10] to run the game, in reality this is not true, at least for the Steam release.
- For Windows Store version see this workaround
- If you have your CPU doesn't support the POPCNT instruction, then your CPU is below the system requirements of this game. Expect the game to run poorly on your PC.
Remove POPCNT check in rl_x64_f.dll[11] |
