Just got Fallen Order and had this issue, solved by clearing cache from local Origin folder.
https://help.ea.com/en-in/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games/
The instructions say to delete the folder %AppData%\Roaming\Local\Origin, but I simply renamed it "Origin-backup" just in case, which did the same thing. Shout out to EA support for walking me through troubleshooting and trying this method. I tried other suggestions I saw in this thread which didn't help me, but maybe I missed this one particular troubleshooting step when skimming through.

Why does the game need Epic Games to launch? Isn't it an EA Game? Ican't play without the Epic Games Lauincher

"Click on the Jedi Fallen order splash screen (smaller window that shows the title and cover) and then hit alt+F4. My game started immediately when I tried this"
After all these failed attempts to fix the game, THIS can't seriously be the solution I needed to find! Tried it and my game immediately started working XD

Alt f4 just closes it in Windows11

Weirdly it launched just fine for me in Windows 11. I didn't have to do any work arounds
