Not launching on Steam Deck after most recent update

Since yesterday, whenever trying to launch the game, it attempts to load for 5 seconds with the Steam logo spinning then will take me back to the Steam menu. I've tried rebooting the Deck many times and clearing proton files. I set it to use GE-Proton7-34 currently and that has worked till now.

Please let me know if anyone else is experiencing this behaviour and if you've found a fix.

Thanks!

  • If anyone is wondering - I managed to resolve this by uninstalling/reinstalling the game. Wonder if this is necessary after every update..

    Same here.....when booting the EA app on steamdeck, its says there is a mandatory update , the update downloads, installs then asks for an app restart. When it starts again, it goes through the same process saying there is a mandatory update.... just keeps happening. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    @rectifier96 Same is happening to me. I've done the same steps with no luck. I'm trying to play Battlefield 1 and all of a sudden the launcher stops working.. been that way fir a week now. Very disappointing
  • I attempted the uninstall/reinstall today without any success...

    Still unable to play the game in the Game Mode or Desktop Mode. I've also installed the EA App in the Desktop mode and signed in succesfully but unfortunately still no luck with access the game.

    Very frustrating experience and seemingly no way to resolve. Others have had the same issues and have made posts through the Steam community.

    Please help EA!!!

  • @SFaris94 Hi what game is this for? Are you talking about the EA app not launching? That's what problem I'm running into right now.
