Flickering Blue Lights

Hi,

I am playing BF 6 on Xbox Series X.
Within the menu and while playing the game, I am experiencing flickering blue lights of differing severity (see video attached). This bug has been experienced by other users as well (search on Reddit and this forum for „Battlefield 6 flashing lights all over my screen“).

I tried the following to resolve the issue and could not fix it:

  • Reset Xbox to factory settings
  • Re-install Battlefield 6
  • Delete all Battlefield 6 Save-Files
  • Switching HDMI Cables and Monitors (bug also reproduces under Xbox remote play via Wifi)
  • Using various video output settings (4K to 720p, 60hz/120hz, HDR and Dolby Vision On/Off)

  • Still happens to me as well until this date. Unfortunately I havent found any solution yet and it doesnt seem to happen because of the hardware, most likely a very unqiue game bug (some have it since release according to forums)

  • If that were my Xbox, I'd be worried that it's on the way out, but if it's only happening with this game then that might not be the case. You could try turning VRR off in the settings, clearing your MAC address and persistent storage before another restart.

    Thanks for the comment - I appreciate it.
    It‘s only in this game. Already tried it with and without VRR as well.

    Since I use the digital version, I believe there is no benefit in clearing the persistent storage (as to my understanding it‘s only relevant for Disc-Games). Am I right? Did it even though.

    Also cleared the Mac-Adress. All of your suggested fixes sadly did not resolve the issue.

    Appears to be an issue with the game - as many people are facing the same problems…

    Also appears to be problematic mainly on consoles, as people experience the bug on PS5 and XBOX.
