Ending Windows 7/8/8.1 operating support for BFV, BF1 and Battlefront 2

Hi everyone,

As of November 30th 2023, we’re ending support for playing Battlefield 1, Battlefield V, and Star Wars: Battlefront II while on Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 operating systems to ensure safe play for all players.

That means that we can no longer guarantee functionality of these titles while playing on these operating systems after this date.

Microsoft has already ended security updates and technical support for Windows 7 in January 2020 and for Windows 8.1 in January 2023, and we highly recommend updating to the latest supported version of Windows, so you can continue to enjoy these games.

For more information on keeping your system up-to-date we recommend reading the following articles:
