When I try to launch Red Alert 3, I get this error message: "Your Game Failed to Launch. Double Check Your Connection or Try Again Later". My other installed games in the EA App work fine. I tried launching the exe directly but was prompted with an older looking EA log in. When I try to log in it says I'm offline, which I am not. I searched through the forums but haven't had much success.

Having this problem launching the Sims 4. Just installed all of the game files for the first time on my brand new laptop. Using the EA desktop app. Game ran fine yesterday on old laptop using Origin. Can't seem to download origin on new laptop. Haven't found much help. Tried repairing files, no luck. I'm connected, app recognizes me as online. Not sure what to do...

@CartoMonger I have the exact same issue with Fifa 2022

Exact same issue with Mass Effect 3 (2012).
Launches and runs fine in Origin. Never have been able to get it to launch in the EA app.

(Before you ask: I play for multiplayer, so no, Legendary edition is a no go. )

@CartoMonger same problem here. Worked perfectly yesterday and when I launched mass effect 3 (2012) today everything was fine until I had no sound in game and tried to restart ... guess what... Your Game Failed to Launch. Double Check Your Connection or Try Again Later". And since u've been waiting for a whole month I guess we'll never have a fix

I have the need for speed reboot game on the ea app on pc with ea play, and when I try to launch the game the app window closes then reopens and doesn't start the game. If I try and run as admin, it will come out with an error saying "failed to launch".

Seems to be alot of older games getting errors lately based on the number of posts here! Hope you get your problem sorted to the best tho!
