[BF6] Recurring crash to desktop — Access Violation NULL pointer (bf6.exe)

Hi all,

I'm getting repeated crashes on Battlefield 6 Multiplayer & REDSEC, straight to desktop with no specific error message. I analyzed the crash dump with WinDbg, here are the key details:

  • Error type: Read Access Violation (0xc0000005), attempted read at NULL address (0x0)
  • Faulting module: bf6.exe
  • Approximate symbol: ffxFsr2ResourceIsNull (huge offset, so likely not the actual faulting function — just the nearest exported symbol since there's no public PDB)
  • OS: Windows 10 (build 10.0.26100.1)
  • Game version: 1.0.437.12728

What I've already tried / checked:

  • Driver: GeForce Game Ready 610.88
  • File integrity check
  • FSR2/upscaling/DLSS etc. all disabled
  • Overlays disabled

Specs:

  • CPU: i7 14700K
  • GPU: RTX 5080
  • RAM: DDR5 32GB @ 6800MHz

The crash seems related to the Frostbite engine itself rather than a driver/Windows issue based on the dump. If anyone has hit a similar crash or has any leads, I'd appreciate it. I can provide the full .mdmp file if that helps with investigation.

Thanks in advance!

    I have had the same issue, only difference with me is mine is a 14700F, and my GPU is a 5070, not a 5080. My driver is the recommended driver to roll back to though, not yours. But yes same, sometimes crashes on startup sometimes crashes an hour in, sometimes 4 hours in. I'm just going to quit playing until they fix this.
