Could not load file or assembly using dotnet benchmark

[olivegamestudio]

When running the following command line:

dotnet benchmark XXX.dll

The DLL project is referencing, but tried different versions to no avail:

<PackageReference Include="BenchmarkDotNet" Version="0.12.0" />

I get the following error:

Couldn't load the assembly XXX.dll.
System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'XXX, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.
