However, like all of its predecessors, FIFA 21 is plagued with a wide variety of issues from the very beginning. One of the latest issues to reach the public forums is that some users can’t seem to launch FIFA 21 whenever they click it. Normally, when you try to access a game that is installed through Origin, the game platform launches first before the actual game. Apparently when I reinstalled origin and FIFA 21, the FIFA 21 Launcher opens, but when I click on Play the game just doesn’t launch. However, as users described it further down the thread, nothing happens when they double-click the FIFA 20 icon. A few solutions were found by both users and the EA staff, and this article is here to present them to you in a step-by-step manner. Quick tip: FIFA games have proven themselves over the years that despite being buggy, they are still worth it. Get your hands on the latest entry in this franchise and join the pros on the virtual stadiums!

How do I fix FIFA 21 if it doesn’t launch at all?

1. Update your device drivers

There are plenty of ways you can update your Windows drivers:

Use Windows Update Use the Device Manager Update the drivers from the manufacturer’s website

The third option, which happens to be the fastest as most secure as well, is using a third-party driver updater and fixer like DriverFix. Compared to the other 3 solutions mentioned above, using a dedicated driver updater means you will never download the wrong driver for your hardware model. More so, you save time by not having to manually visit each manufacturer’s website to get the drivers. The last reason why DriverFix should be your go-to solution is that it also fixes the drivers that you have, or detects the ones that are missing entirely.

3. Check to see if your hardware meets the minimum requirements

Check out FIFA 20’s minimum and recommended system requirements. FIFA 20 for PC is indeed a resource-intensive game so, before trying looking for answers, check to see if your PC cand even run it. You can head over to EA’s official website and check what are the minimum and recommended system requirements for PC. Check out your own computer’s specs A window will open up and show you some basic information about your computer. This includes RAM, Processor, the installed OS, etc. If you want a more detailed information sheet, you could try running a DxDiag, like this: A new window will open up. Wait for the green bar to fill up, and look at your PC’s specs. Switch between the System, Display and Sound tabs as these are the ones you will be most interested in.

4. Change the configuration file to run in DX12

  If your PC’s specs are way lower than FIFA 21’s minimum system requirements, this is most likely why the game won’t launch.
