AMD has released Radeon Adrenalin Edition 23.3.1 drivers, ironing out a handful of bugs such as crashes and timeouts alongside the usual new games support.
Version 23.3.1 adds support for the recently released Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty which joined Xbox Game Pass a week ago, and the Halo Infinite Ray Tracing update. This driver also brings some much-needed fixes to driver timeouts in Halo Infinite when ray tracing is enabled, system freeze or BSOD using select displays on Radeon RX 7000 Series GPUs, graphics corruption in Dying Light 2 plus Returnal, and crashes while opening Premium Gold Packs in EA SPORTS FIFA 23. As far as gamer’s wallets are concerned, the latter was more of a feature than a bug, if you catch my drift.
As for the known issues, a couple of them are still persistent from older bug lists – like the corruption when switching between video and game windows and Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves’ stuttering that has now transformed into crashes. Not to forget the high idle power which has become a meme.
Note that the factory reset option has been temporarily disabled as a precautionary measure while AMD addresses some installation issues. As an alternative, there is always the handy DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller).
The Adrenalin Edition 23.3.1 driver is available on AMD’s website here.
