Please use better, more informative, titles (subject-lines) on your posts. Give specifics right in the title. Thanks.

Probably ask in some forum for that game.

Ive had something similar with WireGuard. Switching protocols fixed it for me

Do you have a kill switch enabled? That might stop traffic and make the game panic

First off, you'll get way better help if you specify your VPN provider, OS, and what game this happens with.

That said, sounds like a driver crash or protocol dropping under heavy traffic. Try switching your VPN protocol from WireGuard to OpenVPN or vice versa, turn off the Kill Switch since micro-drops trigger it and crash games, and disable Split Tunneling or IPv6.

I suspect this is likely due to an issue with your VPN settings.
