EA has confirmed that Battlefield 6 will not require Steam users to launch the EA app in order to play the game. This announcement is sure to please fans of Battlefield 6 who prefer to keep their gaming platforms separate.

Battlefield 6’s recent multiplayer reveal has been met with enthusiasm from the community, especially after the letdowns of Battlefield 2042. Players await the game’s launch on October 10 and have already begun to express their excitement.

Battlefield 6 Will Not Require the EA App on Steam

As reported by PC Gamer, Steam gamers will not need to launch the EA app when playing Battlefield 6, marking a significant improvement in user experience. Historically, EA titles often required simultaneous launches of both Steam and the EA app, which frustrated many players.

While this news is excellent for Steam users, it is essential to note that an EA account will still be necessary to access the game. Additionally, players who opt to purchase Battlefield 6 via the Epic Games Store will still have to launch the EA app concurrently.

The anticipation for Battlefield 6 is building, especially as the first open beta is set to commence on August 9, with an early access phase available starting August 7, and another open beta scheduled from August 14 to 17.
