Battlefield 6 and Windows 10 End of Life — Will the game stop working after the OS dies? Here’s what you need to know.

Microsoft will cease support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025, ending free security patches, bug fixes, and feature updates. While PCs will continue to function normally after this date, users will be exposed to potential security vulnerabilities without ongoing updates. Options for maintaining security include enrolling in the Extended Security Update program, checking hardware compatibility for Windows 11, or forcing the Windows 11 update on unsupported hardware. Additionally, Steam plans to phase out support for 32-bit Windows 10 by January 1, 2026, but most gamers use 64-bit systems. EA has not announced plans to withdraw support for its EA app on Windows 10.
