Today we explain how to fix Need for Speed Unbound not working. Players who purchased the Palace Edition or have an EA Play Pro Subscription can now download Need for Speed Unbound. You can also try out the game for ten hours if you have a regular EA Play or Xbox Game Pass membership.

As was previously mentioned, new games frequently crash, so problems are bound to arise when they are first released. However, if your game isn’t running at all, something is probably missing or broken on your end of the equation. Here are a few things you should do to start playing the game.

Verify game files

Checking that your game files are in order should be your first priority. No matter where you download Need for Speed Unbound from, the client will allow you to check the game files. This will determine whether any corrupted or missing files require downloading.

Steam

  • Navigate to your library on Steam.
  • In your library, right-click Need for Speed Unbound.
  • Press Properties.
  • Choose the “Local Files” tab.
  • Select Verify Integrity of local files…

EA App

  • Open the EA App.
  • Go to the left and click on My Collection.
  • Next, select Need for Speed Unbound by clicking the three dots next to Installed.
  • Choose Repair from the menu.

The game files will be scanned and checked as a result of this. Any damaged or missing files will be redownloaded after scanning. For the majority of users, this will solve their issue, and the game should now function normally.
