Hello @D3fCHiLD,

I'm trying to clarify a few things first to help you out:

• Do you have your EA account linked to your Xbox account with an active Game Pass subscription?
• Which Battlefield game are you trying to launch?
• Does it show the Trial version or the full game?
• Are you trying to launch the game through a shortcut, or through the EA app?
• Which version of Battlefield did you purchase?

• Do you have your EA account linked to your Xbox account with an active Game Pass subscription?
  • I do, but it appears to requires me to reverify it occasionally.
• Which Battlefield game are you trying to launch?
  • BF 2042
• Does it show the Trial version or the full game?
  • It says that I own the game, but I am required to link to my Microsoft account for a 10 hour trial
• Are you trying to launch the game through a shortcut, or through the EA app?
  • Both do the same
• Which version of Battlefield did you purchase?
  • BF2042 Gold
