Download & Installation

If you are new to Project Reality, visit the downloads page to download the standalone v1.4 installer.



If you have already installed Project Reality: BF2 v1.3.9, simply press "PLAY" in the launcher and the automatic updater will handle the rest! If you once took part in map events containing Bayman, Goose Green or The Falklands, please remove these maps from your installation to avoid issues.



If you have installed an older version than Project Reality: BF2 v1.3, you will still need to download the full PR:BF2 v1.4 installer, since an update from v1.2.1.0 or older to v1.4 is not supported. If you do not play other BF2 mods, you can also uninstall Battlefield 2 to save hard drive space.



You can find the detailed PR Installation Guide right here.
