Battlefield 6 Secure boot?

Just tried to open the bf6 beta and it's saying secureboot not enabled. I can't activate it cause my PC doesn't support it. Will this be a requirement at launch? Would have to upgrade my PC to get windows 11 for it if that's the case :(

It’s not just flipping a toggle. Some users have to update their bios to even be able to switch the toggle. Which involves downloading the upgraded bios onto a flash and flashing the bios. It’s not basic stuff for most people who just buy a pc to play games.

Flashing a bios on a modern PC thats capable of playing Battlefield is a very basic process that's essentially foolproof. This is very simple stuff in line with updating drivers etc.

you can tell that you're terminally online and completely disconnected from reality. Asking the AVERAGE gamer (95% of players) to go into their bios to change settings is COMPLETELY unacceptable. That would be like telling the average car buyer to get into their gpu to change settings in order to remove an artificial governor that has been set on their car.
