The error code 1:85009S in Battlefield 6 (likely Battlefield 2042) can be caused by various issues related to connectivity, game files, or account verification problems.
It usually appears during game launches or when trying to join multiplayer servers.
Here are some steps you can follow to troubleshoot and resolve the error:
How to Fix
1. Check EA Server Status
Sometimes, error codes like this are caused by server-side issues. It’s a good idea to check if EA’s servers are down for maintenance or experiencing problems.

2. Restart Your Game and EA App/Origin
Close the game and restart it to see if the error resolves itself.
Similarly, restart the EA app or Origin (depending on what you’re using to play the game). Sometimes simply restarting these platforms can clear up connectivity issues.
3. Repair the Game Files
If your game files are corrupted or incomplete, it could lead to this error. You can repair the game files via the EA App or Steam:
EA App: Right-click the game in your library > “Manage” > “Repair.”
Steam: Right-click the game in your Steam library > “Properties” > “Local Files” > “Verify Integrity of Game Files.”
4. Check for Updates
Update the game: Make sure you’re running the latest version of Battlefield 2042 as updates often fix bugs and connectivity issues.
Update EA AntiCheat: Outdated anti-cheat software can sometimes lead to connection errors. Make sure EA AntiCheat is up to date.
Update Drivers: Ensure that your graphics and network drivers are up-to-date, as outdated drivers can cause issues with multiplayer games.

5. Disable Firewall/Antivirus or VPN
Some third-party applications, such as firewalls, antivirus, or VPNs, can interfere with the connection to the game servers.
Temporarily disable your firewall or antivirus and see if it resolves the issue. Be sure to turn them back on afterward.
If you’re using a VPN, try disabling it as it can cause connection issues with EA’s servers.
6. Check Your Internet Connection
Test your connection: Ensure your internet connection is stable. If possible, use a wired connection (Ethernet) for a more stable experience.
Router Restart: Sometimes, simply restarting your router can help resolve connectivity issues.
7. Log Out and Log Back Into EA Account
Sometimes, an issue with your EA account login can cause errors. Try logging out of your EA account and then logging back in.
If you’re having trouble with your account, reset your password or contact EA support for assistance.
8. Check Date & Time Settings
Incorrect date and time settings on your computer can cause issues with connecting to servers. Make sure your system’s time zone and time settings are correct.
9. Contact EA Support
If none of the steps above resolve the error, it’s best to contact EA Support directly. Provide them with the exact error code (1:85009S) for a faster resolution.
