AMD's New Radeon Driver Adds Support for The Blood of Dawnwalker
Adrenalin 26.9.1 also fixes an RX 9000-series crash in Starfield and Apex Legends, and adds day-one support for Onimusha: Way of the Sword.
AMD put out Adrenalin Edition 26.9.1 on September 3, the same day The Blood of Dawnwalker launched. Nothing flashy here — two games added, one real crash fixed, the usual leftover known issues.

Two games get official support this time: The Blood of Dawnwalker, Rebel Wolves' vampire RPG, and Capcom's Onimusha: Way of the Sword. AMD doesn't give specific numbers or FSR/frame-gen details for either — just confirms the driver's ready for them.
RX 9000 series owners who've had crashes in Starfield or Apex Legends can stop waiting — it's fixed. AMD lists it under Fixed Issues this time, not as another entry on the known-problems pile.
The AI Bundle installer can still fail in regions with limited access to HuggingFace or GitHub. Smart Access Memory can get disabled after installing on Windows 10. Anti-Lag 2 might show as inactive in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy once you turn off Frame Generation, even though it's still doing its job. And if you're running an RX 9050 4GB in Cyberpunk 2077, turn down the graphics-heavy settings — that game wants 6GB minimum, and the card doesn't have it.
26.9.1 is up now as an optional download from AMD's site, or through the auto-detect tool. Rolling back afterward? Run the AMD Cleanup Utility first instead of just installing an older driver on top.
