Re: PS4 New game update required.

Hey! I'm having this same issue with Battlefield 1.  I've been playing the game for weeks with no issue, but the day the platoons came out I received this error.  I have no updates in my notifications.  I have internet connection.  Any ideas?  Thanks

Hello @itsmethemike

I assume you are on PlayStation 4? Have you tried to perform troubleshooting steps, I`ve mentioned in my previous post? Reinstalling the game must fix this. Also check your console for free disk space, sufficient for the upgrade.

I am playing on the PC and having the same problem. Already tried uninstalling and repairing the game, still don't have any luck.

When i'm in the BF1 menus im getting a 'update required' screen with the two options 'not now' or 'update'. I can't click on either of these options. 

Origins says my game is ready to play and fully updated. Anyone knows what to do? I've played the game with no issues for weeks..

Hi  just tried this but there is no check for updates option in the menu

Same thing just happened to me with the October update. Update always appeared in my notifications. This time, it did not.
I finally learned that hitting options (pause button) while having the application highlighted will bring up a menu. Then click search for updates. Your new update will not appear in your notifications download.

An odd thing to occur. I almost uninstalled the app.

Thanks bro !!! I had to delete some stuff. I didnt even know you could update that way. I been stuck for 3 days.lol

Thanks man it worked for me.

Im a premium member since 4 month ago (BF1)..but these thing came yesterday.and its say 'new game required update'..wth.!any suggestion?i did email my problem with EA but i havent receive anything from them.

@gontuts, have you read the posts above yours? 😉

@Pvt_Wily_Stroker most likely has given the answer to your problem, there might be not enough space on your HDD.

Delete some GBs and the Update should start automatically 🙂

They are taking the *, a 26GB update just to play MP. That's fine if you have a decent Internet connection but not everyone does. Imaging having a 2MB Internet connection then reinstalling the game ect becomes a real pain in the *.

I have been playing when the game came out and now I am receiving same issues.  If I delete and reinstall will I loose my stats? 

thank you so much for that tip, i wasnt aware of that function.

Hey @CoLoRadoz_Finest,

Have you tried verifying the files in your PS4 settings, or doing a clean uninstall/reinstall of Battlefield 1?

After you try these, I would do a hard reset on your PS4 (Unplug for a couple minutes, plug it back in) and launch Battlefield 1 again.

Also, are you sure that your PS4 didn't automatically update Battlefield?

Thanks 🙂
