Battlefield 6 Will Not Launch on PC After Season 3 Update

The anti-cheat overlay appears first, then Steam shows that Battlefield 6 is running for a few seconds, but the game immediately closes without even reaching the splash screen or main menu.

Before Season 3, the game worked perfectly fine and I never had any launch-related issues.

Things I already tried:

  • Verified game files through Steam
  • Fully reinstalled the game

Neither helped.

Has anyone else experienced this after the update? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello, I faced the same issue. If you created a user.cfg file, remove it then it will successfully start. before doing this, I repair the files and remove and reinstall the game but it didnt work.

    Hi, thanks for the advice, but I've never used those files before. I thought maybe I should download REDSEC and Single Campaign again, but that didn't help either.

    Wombibara​ Hey,

    Can you run the EasyAntiCheat Updater, then launch it again? If you encounter any actual errors, let us know as well. If the game crashes, there should be a crash log of why, or something is corrupted as ewren2508​ stated. Also, reset your host file.

    One issue has been the ProvSave files in the Documents folder. I would delete those too.

    Unfortunately, none of the suggested solutions helped.

    I tried:

    • verifying files
    • reinstalling the game
    • repairing Easy Anti-Cheat
    • resetting the HOSTS file
    • deleting the Documents/ProvSave files

    The game still closes immediately after the anti-cheat splash screen without any error message.

    Everything worked perfectly fine before the Season 3 update.
