Battlefield 6 Season 1 has launched, but some players are running into a few problems. While some had trouble downloading REDSEC or getting their free Battle Pass with a Pro Token, a bigger issue is the ‘Account Restricted’ error preventing people from playing. The good news is this error isn’t as severe as it appears.
How to fix Battlefield 6 Account Restricted error on Steam
If you’re seeing an ‘Account Restricted’ error, the developers know about it and are working on a fix. This error message can be alarming, stating you can’t access online features and displaying a long number sequence starting with 1:86001S. But if you haven’t done anything to violate the terms of service, there’s likely a simple solution.
The reason for the issue is explained in the “Known Issues” section of the official Battlefield Discord server.
If you uninstall the “Battlefield 6 Marker” DLC from Steam, you won’t be able to play Battlefield 6 and will see a message saying your account is restricted. Reinstalling the DLC will fix this and let you play again.
So, how to fix this bug? Make sure that you have agreed to all DLCs that the game offers.
- Find Battlefield 6 in your Library on Steam.
- Right click it.
- Pick Properties.
- Go to the DLC section.
- Make sure that all boxes are ticked and download all necessary files if needed.
Hopefully, this issue will be fixed soon. However, let’s be glad that it can be easily fixed.
