I have a workaround that works for me, every time I boot the game I do the following:
- Turn HDR OFF in the game menu
- Turn HDR OFF in Windows with Alt+Win+B
- Turn HDR back ON in the game menu
- Turn HDR back ON in Windows with Alt+Win+B again, the colours then look correct
I'm running an Nvidia graphics card with Windows 11 and running the game via Steam which then launches the EA App - so I'm not sure if this will work for people with different configurations.
The strange thing I noticed is that when recording the game with Nvidia share, it would record the HDR accurately; even though while playing/recording the colours looked totally off on the monitor. So I think something odd is going on with how the game is booting up and initiating HDR through the way Windows outputs HDR and running the above steps seems to initiate it correctly.
That doesn't work because you can't turn HDR back ON in the game menu when HDR is off in Windows.
