How do you create game shortcut on EA Desktop APP?

How do you create a game shortcut on EA Desktop APP? I'm not talking about Origin here either, whenever I install a game on there new application I never see an option to create desktop and start me...

    Hi everyone,

    With the latest update we added the functionality where you can create a desktop shortcut when installing a game. 

    What do you think?

Now you can create shortcut, you need to go to the game folder (Titanfall 2 as example), find Titanfall2.exe and create shortcut, by launching exe or shortcut EA Desktop App will be launched automatically

    @balmashev93 It doesn't work on a EA play game, it launches Origin saying i need to own the game to launch it. xD

      @BARON_Patatoz That's kinda strange, I will test on other games then. It works for Titanfall 2 for me (EA Play included in Xbox Game Pass Ultimate)

      Is the game launching if you start it with EA Desktop?
