NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards are experiencing driver-related crashes in the newly released Battlefield 6. This issue specifically impacts players using maps with large bodies of water, such as Tsuru Reef. Gamers relying on the latest hardware should be aware of this instability before diving into multiplayer matches.
EA advises rolling back to driver 596.49 for stable gameplay
EA and Battlefield Studios have confirmed that PC players are encountering GPU driver crashes within the game. The problem appears to be concentrated among users equipped with GeForce RTX 50 Series cards. The current Game Ready driver, version 610.74, released on July 7, is linked to these incidents.
- Affected Maps: Maps with large bodies of water, specifically Tsuru Reef
- Recommended Driver Version: 596.49
- Current Driver Version: 610.74
- Potential Hotfix Version: 610.82
EA and Battlefield Studios advise players experiencing repeated crashes to temporarily roll back to GeForce driver 596.49. This older version serves as a stable workaround while the underlying cause remains under investigation. The exact origin of the crash, whether in the game code or the driver, has not yet been confirmed by EA.
Some users have identified a potential hotfix version 610.82 that may resolve the issue. However, reports from Reddit suggest this newer driver might not fix the specific water-map crashes. Until a definitive patch is released, rolling back to version 596.49 remains the recommended course of action for affected users.
