Strangely I have never had issues with Blood Omen 2 PC before typically it was the other games that gave me issues and BO2 always worked perfectly.


I'm on my brand new PC an I7 skylake build running Windows 10 64bit. Blood omen 2 GOG and Steam versions will not boot, the exe crashes immediately. I haven't tried my actual physical copy but I would assume the same results would apply.

I have tried it in EVERY compatibility mode possible, as admin, I tried replacing the bink32.dll with the one from Defiance. It crashes every single time.

It's a shame I tried emulating the GCN one but it looks bad and i know the PC version I can get looking so very nice if I can just get it to run. There's got to be a fix somehow.


FYI - Defiance boots up with zero issues.

I created a fix for Legacy of Kain Blood Omen 2 on Windows 10. Check out my fix here.
eriedlinger you're the man!

Worked like a charm on my system (WIN 10 64 bit / AMD RX 460 with 18.2.1 drivers).

Thumbs up !

please pardon my necro post but while i have tested and confirmed your fix does indeed work just now, it also highlighted a much worse problem. that being that this game is one of those rare nasty cases where the game window is locked on top of the screen and has no means of being minimized or moved.

i mean, it's playable for me now but thank goodness this is a RARE problem cause geez...annoying much?

i...i'll have to close the game out to chat on discord and stuff... those are some truly BS design flaws right there!
