If your computer comes with modern Intel graphics, our games may fail to run if you use our standard game launcher.

This guide will help you with installing an alternative Vulkan-based game launcher which should work well with your modern Intel graphics.

  1. Download and install the alternative Vulkan-based game launcher from this link.
    • If you already had our standard game launcher installed, setup will first uninstall it and then install the alternative game launcher.
    • During installation, the Microsoft Defender SmartScreen filter may tell you that it prevented an unrecognized app from starting which it says "might put your PC at risk".
      We assure you that our game launcher is not harmful for your computer; choose to "run it anyway" like this:


      Windows Defender SmartScreen warning


      Windows Defender SmartScreen warning
  2. After installation has finished, run the game through its website pirategalaxy.com.
    • You may see the popup message in your web browser again which asks you to allow game launcher links to be opened.
    • Depending on how your system is configured, you may also see the warning message from Microsoft Defender SmartScreen again.
  3. That's it! From now on, our games should run on your computer!
:!: Please note that installing the alternative Vulkan-based game launcher has no impact on our standalone game clients. This means you will always need to go through the game's website to run the game.
