Black Screen Issue

tcercsgs · 6 May 2026 at 21:19 · permalink

I was playing without an issue, but for some reason, now when i start the game and try to join a game it doesn't connect to any, it's just a black screen and throws me back to the main menu.

Has anyone ever gotten through something like this? is there any fix?

I really hate that you guys are having that issue too but I'm also honestly glad to hear that someone else is having the same problem because I've been chasing this for several days thinking it was just me. Now I know it's not. So thank you for posting about it

I honestly think they might be intentionally not fixing the problems in the game — and maybe even creating new ones — just to push people into buying Battlefield 6. Out of pure spite, I’m not going to spend that much money on Battlefield 6, because when you think about it, a game released back in 2021 still having this many bugs and issues really makes me question how reliable Battlefield 6 will be.

Try joining a Team Deathmatch game, waiting for the 5 second countdown to launch, quickly quit out and the load Conquest. It's a weird workaround that I found on Reddit.

Thank you for that. I'll try that as soon as it's done storming at my house and my Internet comes back 😂😂

I just tried it and it didn't work for me

This has been happening on and off for the past month, but today it seems worse because none of the game modes are working. Portal servers seem to work fine.

Same for me but only for breakthrough. Conquest connect normally. I googled this and saw some suggestions to reinstalling ea anticheat,verifying game files if on steam. But havent tried any of that because i logged off for the night

This is an ongoing issue the devs are aware of and looking in to.

Please take the time to reply to the comment here from one of the community managers with the issue you're experiencing.

Hopefully this can be resolved for everyone.

\+1 can't join any game, I just get a black screen then booted into the main menu.

Wow, it really works.

At this point I think they're doing it on purpose to boost BF6 player numbers ahead of season 3

Hey does anyone has a fix for this? Since today I havent been able to open up Breakthrogh, everything else works. I open it up, it counts down, then goes to a black screen.

I've tried reinstalling the game and some other fixes, but it doesn't work.
