How to fix Battlefield not working
Battlefield is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Restart Battlefield
Close Battlefield fully, then start it again. If it still cannot connect, restart your PC or console before launching the game.
Check for a game update
Open Battlefield in your platform's game library and check for updates. Install any available update, then try joining a match again.
Clear the EA app cache
On PC, open the EA app menu, choose Help, then App Recovery, then Clear cache. The app will restart; launch Battlefield again afterward.
Test your console connection
On Xbox, open Settings > General > Network settings > Test network connection. On PS5, open Settings > Network > Connection Status > Test Internet Connection; if the test fails, restart your router and test again.
While Battlefield is down: what to use instead
- EA server status page Check it first, because EA lists known outages and maintenance there, and a posted problem means you can stop reinstalling the game or resetting your router.
- EA Help centre When the status page looks clear but you still can't sign in or keep losing connection to EA servers, the help centre has troubleshooting steps and a way to reach support.
- Call of Duty: Warzone It runs on Activision's servers, so an EA outage leaves it alone.
- Hell Let Loose Pick it up when you want large maps, vehicles and squad play that feel close to Battlefield, though fights move at a slower, more tactical pace.

Problems at the same time as Battlefield
Since 5 October, all 6 of Battlefield's spikes in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.
When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

What happens when Battlefield goes down
Battlefield is EA’s first-person shooter series, played on consoles and PC. You rely on its online services for multiplayer matches, squads, and progression, so an outage can interrupt play or keep you from connecting.
Connection trouble often shows up first when you try to sign in or join a match, while players already in a game may see lag or a dropped connection. Matchmaking can stall, and squad play may fail even when other parts of the game still work. Problems can affect one platform or region while play continues elsewhere, so check EA’s official status page at https://help.ea.com/en/server-status/ for service updates, or the Battlefield help centre at https://help.ea.com/en/battlefield/ for support.

How we track Battlefield
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Battlefield, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Battlefield, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Battlefield's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
