Crash to Desktop, Eventlog: EAAntiCheatService failed

Hi,

I can launch the Battlefield 6 Beta just fine — the main menu runs stable. But as soon as I join a match, I get kicked to the desktop after 1–2 minutes with no error message or warning.

In the Windows Event Log, right after the crash, I see this:

EAAntiCheatService
Failed retrieving service path
Event ID 1, Source: Application

Battlefield 6 Beta doesn’t show up in the EA Anti-Cheat installer — only older BF titles are listed. I also tried a manual installation via CMD using the game path, but that fails as well, probably because the Beta doesn’t have a defined internal ID yet.

My system:

    RTX 4090

    i9-13900K

    32 GB RAM

    Windows 11

    EA App up to date

    All drivers, BIOS, DirectX, Visual C++ fully updated

I’ve already reinstalled the game, cleared the cache, and tried running the EA App as admin — no luck. It seems like there’s a bug in how EA Anti-Cheat is integrated into the Beta.

Is there any manual fix or patch in the works?

    You and I are in the same boat.  Same setup, what a total POS..  I think i have managed to finish 3 total games out of 20.  Game keeps crashing to desktop over and over again...  Now i only get the "EAAnitiCheat.GameService.exe (7)(2) " . I am going to get a refund until the game is sorted out.

  • I updated my motherboard in BIOS and now it works perfectly. Maybe that could help you too.
