That said, here are some possible fixes that you can try out in the meantime, and why they might work.


1) Restart the system

Battlefield 6 is still in its Open Beta phase. Some irregularities are normal, and many are likely to occur still. The game may hang or be unable to process assets while loading. This could result in it being stuck at the loading screen.

Restarting your entire system is a tried-and-tested method that often works for similar issues. Here's what you need to do:

  • Shut down the game by pressing Alt + F4.
  • If that doesn't work, you may press Ctrl + Alt + Del to open up the Task Manager. From there, you can pick Battlefield 6 and click on End Task.
  • Additionally, shut down any applications exerting load on the system and using unnecessary overlays
  • Once the game has been shut down completely, restart your PC.
  • Then return to the game and try to run the match again.
