Despite the rather unfamiliar name, EA Sports FC 24 is the new incarnation of the EA FIFA series beloved by fans. The title continues with its slow evolution policy making small, incremental changes with each new release every year. Unfortunately, it also often happens that every time a new game in the series launches, there are some issues that make it unable for fans to enjoy the production fully. The situation is no different in this case, as various players have seen “The application has encountered an unexpected error” message while launching the title. If you would like to learn more about it, we have gathered some information regarding it.

The application has encountered an unexpected error in EA Sports FC 24 explained

The message that “The application has encountered an unexpected error” happens for many fans who tried to launch EA Sports FC 24. What is more concerning, very similar error message was seen with the last instalment of the series, FIFA 23.

As of now, there is no official solution for that, though players have tried fixing this error by themselves. Suggestions given by EA Support are to update the drivers of all devices on your computer. This obviously won’t hurt and is worth trying.

To solve the issue, you can try the solution that the community came up with, though bear in mind that it is not guaranteed to work. Players have found that this error is probably appearing while EA Sports FC 24 is trying to initialise its anticheat system. It may happen that unplugging all the devices from your computer, leaving only keyboard and mouse, will solve this problem. Even though the fix was originally proposed for FIFA 23, it still may work for the newest release.

Another solution that could potentially help you is to reinstall EA AntiCheat system. There is a great step-by-step guide prepared by community. Keep in mind that the solution is a bit dated, though it has a chance of solving your problem.
