As I mentioned above, the most recent cause for the Mike-01 error is the deployment ofXDefiantseason 1. This is a big moment for the game because it’s when things get real, and we can start to dive into meaningful changes and updates outside of the preseason.

A great way to ensure you’ve always got the latest version of the game is to check for updates each time you turn your PC or console on. Even if these updates are minor, they’ll help you avoid the Mike-01 error if you make this a habit.
