Hey, all.
If you are still experiencing crashes after attempting the troubleshooting steps in this thread, this might be due to two personas of the same platform on your EA account. One will have to be removed and linked to a new EA account.
To check:
- Visit profile.ea.com
- Under Connections tab, verify you see your PSN ID/Xbox Gamertag. Not seeing it? You are logged into the incorrect account.
- If you see more than 1 Xbox or PSN ID each, you will need to remove one and log into any EA game with the removed ID to prompt account creation for that ID.
- YOU WILL LOSE PROGRESS FOR THAT UNLINKED GAMERTAG/PSN ID. Visit here for full information on what you lose, including info on Battle Pass for Apex Legends.
- It is important you link up the Gamertag/PSN ID you removed to a new EA account or else this error can still occur.
If you are unable to locate the email address you have for the EA account your Gamertag/PSN ID is linked to, please contact our Support team below for account recovery.

this is happening to my xbox once again. it seemed the november update resolved it but i have picked the game up again recently and it is crashing my console randomly. i checked my EA profile as you suggested and everything looks good. i will never purchase an EA game again.

I'm sorry to hear about the crashing you're experiencing. Does a reinstall of the game help prevent that? It's possible files could have been corrupted from an update and a quick reinstall could repair that. - 4 years ago
i had not tried the reinstall yet. running it right now. i’ll get back to you in a couple hours. thanks for responding so quickly.

No problem. Let me know if it helps. If you haven't power cycled the console in a while I recommend doing that, it will help with performance across all your games too.
How to power cycle your Xbox console:
- Turn off the Xbox One console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds until it shuts down completely.
- Unplug the console’s power cable. Wait 10 seconds.
Important Be sure to wait 10 seconds. This step resets the power supply.
- Plug the console power cable back in.
- Press the Xbox button on your console to turn on the Xbox One.

i attempted to play a game this morning and it crashed almost immediately. it did crash me to the dashboard this time rather than shutting down my entire console. i suppose that is an improvement.

I was playing Madden 22 this morning and my entire console crashed after about an hour of playing. It has been 13 months and still no fix. I will never purchase an EA game again.

i uninstalled and reinstalled the game. i played 3 games of franchise mode over 90 minutes last night with no issues. today i played 4 games in over two hours and did not experience a crash. i will post here if i experience another crash.
