Many Battlefield 6 players are experiencing difficulties accessing various game modes on release day due to issues with the EA launcher. The much-anticipated launch on October 10 has seen numerous players unable to access the campaign or PVP multiplayer modes despite impressive sales figures, which reportedly exceed 1.8 million units sold.

While some long wait times for online games on launch day are common, many report being locked out entirely even after waiting. Players receiving error messages state that they are missing essential content needed for gameplay despite having paid in full. Attempts to reinstall the game have not resolved these issues.

The game features various modes, including a nine-mission campaign and numerous competitive multiplayer options, all of which are currently inaccessible to impacted players. Frustrated fans are voicing their discontent, demanding compensation from EA, including full refunds. While the game itself can still be launched, the significant wait times before encountering issues exacerbate the situation.

For those struggling with access on Steam, it appears to be a simpler fix. Simply clearing the download cache in Steam’s settings may enable players to download the Battlefield 6 launch-day patch, granting them access to essential gameplay modes.
