Launching Game Error
I am on a M1 Mac. I just bought Need For Speed Heat Deluxe Edition on the Epic Games store, and now when I try to play it, it loads for a second, says that I am currently playing the game even though no window or anything shows up. After a few more seconds, it says that the game isn't running anymore. During the whole process, no other window appears. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

i'm not sure what is going on here, but you may be missing files
try validating the game files, then post a new log if that doesn't work

@TheGoldenGem (forgive the ping)
does the mac version not have the option to verify and repair or is something seriously wrong here?

does need for speed have its own launcher?
oh, it's an EA game
absent-sapphireOP•2mo ago
im so confused on what to do
metropolitan-bronze•2mo ago
its most likely not launching because EA Launcher is broken on everything besides CrossOver Preview
absent-sapphireOP•2mo ago
is it fixable?
or is it going to be like this forever
metropolitan-bronze•2mo ago
if you have or willing to purchase a crossover license + sign up for preview access they just release a new preview today which fixes the EA Launcher.

how much is it?
metropolitan-bronze•2mo ago
$75 USD, one year of support and updates and you get to keep the versino it ends up on forever. Black Friday is the big sale to get it cheap. Renwals are like 30 bucks i think.
its kinda pricey but their the only ones really who make wine on mac happen. totally worth if you game on mac a bunch.
