The launch of Battlefield 6 has been just as stressful for EA as it has been for players. Due to technical errors on the EA App, many users who had pre-ordered the game found themselves unable to access it on release day. As frustration spread across social media, the company’s image took a noticeable hit.
In response, EA made an unexpected move. The publisher has started granting a free Premium Season Pass to all users who pre-ordered Battlefield 6 through the EA App but couldn’t access the game at launch. The gift is seen as a form of compensation for the login and access issues that marred the release.
Some players reported receiving automatic emails labeled “Battlefield 6 Premium Pass – Season 1 (EA App Compensation Reward)”, confirming that EA has quietly acknowledged the problem.
However, not everyone has received their reward, yet distribution appears to be rolling out gradually. While some players have praised EA’s gesture as a “step in the right direction,” others criticized the company, saying, “Do we really have to experience a problem before getting rewarded?”
Though the free Premium Pass seems to have helped EA contain the backlash, many players now argue that buying directly through Steam might be the safer option.
So what do you think, is EA’s move a genuine apology or just an attempt to repair its damaged reputation? Can one Premium Pass really make things right? Share your thoughts in the comments and stay tuned to both X and VGNW for the latest updates.
