Game freezes then crashes on startup

I open the game, shortly into the EA intro video, it freezes, stayed frozen for a minute or two, then crashes. I've tried rubbing it as an administrator, with Windows 8 compatability, full screen optimization disabled, but still no joy. Looking to see if I can get any help before performing a reinstall, I'm pretty reluctant since it's 110GB

Specs:
i7-12700k
RTX 3060
16GB RAM @ 3200Mhz
1440p 144hz

Game is on my Hard drive:
WDC WD10EZEX-00WN4A0

All my drivers are up to date, I'm pretty lost as to what to do.

    Try the launch option "-dx11" just to see if it runs? I and others have the same issues. The "-dx11" gets the game running me.

    Good Luck.

    Hey, I tried that already, it didn't work, however I did get the game to work, despite owning the game on steam and it not even being in my EA library, I had to uninstall the EA app for it to work.
