Thanks for the help, but none of these seem to work either so i'm not sure what else there is to do.

Well, I had this EXACT issue. Launch game - couple of secs - non fullscreen black window appears - another couple of secs - closes to show origin.
However, my fix is only easy to do for windows 10 users. Windows 7 you'd have to do everything manually, or upgrade to 10.
Read bottom of my post to see what I am talking about at https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Can-t-start-the-game/m-p/6586759#M9559
I am able to play the game after doing this with no issues whatsoever.
Hope this helps some of you, and please inform me if it does.

Nvidia cards:
- Go into Nvidia Control Panel, on the Adjust Desktop Size and Position page, under "Perform Scaling on Display", change "Aspect Ratio" to "No Scaling"
This fixed it for me

Hi, all
I had some similar problem. Star Wars Battlefront 2 didn't launch / start at all. I pressed Play button and Origin went down but pop back up soon after.
I found that problem was Origin installation, Origin was not created correctly some register files.
You can check if origin is installed correctly but going to Control panel -> Programs and Features Or Settings -> App & Features.
If you don't find Origin for among the installed programs then there is register problem.
This is my solution of that problem.
1. Hold down the Windows key and R
2. Type in %TEMP% -> press enter
3. Now delete the Origin folder.
4. Repeat step 2 in %AppData% and %LOCALAPPDATA%
5. Go folder were you have installed Origin, (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin) <- default
6. Delete the Origin folder
7. Restart your PC
8. Download Origin and install it again.
Hope some one find this helpful.

Yeah, after evey new Patch for SWBF2 i need to delete these Folders (deleting origins cache)... but you dont need to delete the Program Files/Origin Folder. So no reinstall is needed. Just delete:

I realise this is an old thread, but this issue doesn't seem to have resolved.
My is running at 24fps. It appears the game is saturating the GFX card memory, which is insane for such a basic game.
CPU: Core i9 9900k locked all core to 5.1Ghz
GPU: RTX 2080 Ti (11GB) OC at 1700Mhz
RAM: 64GB 3200
Running of a Samsung EVO SSD.
Game is completely broken and unplayable.
