Steam version of jedi fallen order won't launch

Hi,

I bought the game on steam but unfortunately it won't start for me no matter what I try. I double click the shortcut and steam briefly opens a window that says something I can't read before it closes then nothing, I try to launch it from origin but origin just restarts (or maybe it's refreshing, not sure), I try to launch it from steam and the green start button switches to that blue launching icon before giving up after about 5-10 seconds, then nothing. Sometimes it automatically pulls up origin, which still performs as mentioned above. I haven't even seen it show up on the task manager

My specs meet the recommended requirements and every other performance intensive game on my pc is working fine, I tried verifying the integrity of the files, restarting my pc, restarting steam and origin, reinstalling the game, I even found starwarsjedifallenorder.exe in the files and set to launch as administrator and disabled the fullscreen optimizations (something I read online).

If you have any other ideas about how I could get the game working they would be very much appreciated! Thanks for your time

  • Hey, @INVISIBLEW4FFLE can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with STAR WARS™ Jedi: Fallen Order™ and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

     

    Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

     

    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

  • Nope, didn't work. None of that worked. Already sent my information to another tech support person like a month ago or something, didn't get any helpful advice. I refunded it through steam and got it free through amazon prime gaming which installed through origin only. That was the issue, it couldn't be launched through steam even with origin running, not running, reinstalled, etc. etc., whatever. That's the last time I spend money on anything that has to run through origin. Bravo everyone, A+ work.

  • same here cant play what a * * company this is god damn it stoped working when i closes the origin overlays cant make games that * work is it that hard
