Hey,

I am having this exact same issue while having the league of legends client open. Close the client and the error goes away.

Initialize engine version: 5.6.5p1 (b5fcd78dd1ab)
GfxDevice: creating device client; threaded=1

GfxDevice: creating device client; threaded=1
GLContext: failed to create context: The specified procedure could not be found.

This appears to be a problem in the new April nVidia driver released recently. We are also seeing this in other Unity games such as Cities:Skylines.

A reboot will fix it temporarily, as you've found. You could try a clean reinstall of nVidia:

- uninstall the driver
- reboot
- install the latest by fresh download from here:
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
- reboot again

If that does not help you might consider doing that clean driver reinstall again, except installing the previous driver version from March.
