Madden crashing on steam

As soon as I open Madden on steam it black screens and closes. When I validate files it says 3 files failed. I’ve deleted and redownloaded multiple times and it still doesn’t work. :(

    When I open Madden on steam it has a black screen on fullscreen. When I validate files it says 3 files failed. I can hear audio from the game, but its just a full black screen with no visual.

    Black screens and then loads the splash screen for a few seconds before completely crashing. Validate files and says 3 files aren't validated. Tried every fix i could find still not working. EA Sports I am NOT in the game.

  • I have been having problems where my madden games won't launch. It started with madden 25, and is now continuing with madden 26. I have tried reinstalling both launcher and game, disabling anti-virus, regedit, running as administrator, deleting all origin files, updating to windows  11and nothing works. I have tried verifying files on steam and it says failed to validate 3 and then still wont launch. Then, all of a sudden I get this gray box asking me to sign in. I sign in with my credentials and nothing happens.
