Re: Battlefield 6 PC Won’t Get Past Splash Screen & Crashes to Desktop

Launching the game through steam, it'll show a small window with a bar at the bottom then close then steam gives me the ability to launch it again. I also have a small 512kb update that I can't download due to the "game not released".

Is anyone else going through this?

    Same [PC Steam] Launching keeps telling me Game not Released | EA Forums - 12728637

    I'm gonna backup the game's files and the manifest file, then uninstall the game and try reinstall. Then I'll put the files back and see.

    I think Steam is bugged.

    I FIXED IT, OR MAYBE IT FIXED ITSELF

    Delete your Steam Manifest file for BF6, move the game files elsewhere. Uninstall the game. Then move the files back, then install without the manifest file in place. Steam will then verify the files and then it will still give the error.

    RESTART STEAM.

    It will then launch.

    same... can't find a fix anywhere. You'd expect the game to work at launch. Hopefully some guru out there figures it out.

    Deactivate smooth motion if you have a NVIDIA graphic Card

    I’m experiencing the exact same issue. I’ve already tried everything — updating drivers, restoring NVIDIA app settings to default, reinstalling the entire game, deleting cache and leftover files, running as administrator, updating DirectX, and repairing both Anti-Cheat and Visual c++. Nothing has worked so far. Please let me know if you manage to find a fix.

    Proberties-dlc Remove checks from dlc content to delete them then download them again by re checking. Run an integrity check after to be sure.
