Madden 26 pc crashes 3 minutes into game no matter what mode

After this newest update my game freezes 3 minutes into clicking the icon on my desktop, game mode doesn’t matter and it worked fine before the update. Not sure what is happening but there is no over heat or high usage happening I’ve checked that. It freezes my pc until it restarts, I’ve re installed EA app the game repaired files turned off every setting lowered all graphics to bare minimum, updated all drivers closed all over lays and still the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • To clarify, I was having minimal issues before this title update.... occasional choppiness, but game was still playable.... Now, I am having this same issue since the Title update, have not been able to play at all. Boot up the game and within 2-5 minutes of it being loaded, it locks up the whole computer... I have 2 PCs with different hardware and one with Windows 10 and one with Windows 11. Both have done the same exact thing, even after updating drivers, windows, uninstall and reinstall EA App, Madden 26, deleting previous Maddens, Lowering/Changing graphics settings. None of this has worked at all still experiencing same issues. I am incredibly frustrated as this is going on 5 days now and have not been able to play, but I/we paid for this game and its literally non-playable. EA please figure this out ASAP as there are many of us experiencing same issues.
