Battlefield 6 Has Good News For Steam Users

Electronic Arts (EA) has announced that when playing Battlefield 6, Steam users won’t need to run the EA app concurrently. This is likely to bring relief to Battlefield 6 enthusiasts who prefer maintaining distinct gaming environments.

The latest unveiling of multiplayer for “Battlefield 6” has been met with enthusiastic responses from fans, serving as a welcome change after the somewhat underwhelming “Battlefield 2042”. It seems that when it releases on October 10, it could mark a significant comeback for the series. In the lead-up to its launch, Electronic Arts is shedding light on what players can anticipate, and one aspect has left fans especially delighted.

Battlefield 6 Won’t Require the EA App on Steam

According to PC Gamer, Steam gamers can play Battlefield 6 without needing to run the EA app simultaneously. Historically, playing EA games on Steam has required running both applications concurrently, which has been a source of frustration for many in the PC gaming community. By dedicating itself entirely to Battlefield 6, it appears that Electronic Arts is making strategic moves to ensure the game’s success.

To clarify, players must possess an EA account to engage in playing Battlefield 6 if crossplay features are implemented. This necessity arises because of the interoperability aspect of the game. Regrettably, this “EA app” requirement applies solely to Steam users; those who purchase Battlefield 6 from the Epic Games Store will also need to run the application concurrently.

Enthusiasts won’t have to hold their breath for long to determine if Battlefield 6 meets its high standards. The initial open beta of Battlefield 6 kicks off on August 9, and lucky fans even get a sneak peek from August 7. After that, another open beta starts on August 14 through August 17, which is sure to be thrilling for those who can’t contain their excitement until the game’s official release date on October 10.
