Free-to-play title GOALS is available on PC and consoles worldwide, but Steam users have run into a problem. While the game downloads as expected, there’s a ‘Finishing Install‘ bug that seems to trigger randomly. Once it does, your game will get stuck in a loop, and you’ll be unable to play.

Thankfully, there are a few workarounds to try to solve the problem.

GOALS ‘Finishing Install’ bug fix

The bug appears to be random as there are Steam users who have been able to play the game. Unfortunately, the cause for the bug remains unknown, but it seems to have affected plenty of players worldwide.

There are two ways to solve the problem. The first way is to uninstall the game from Steam and restart the process. There’s, however, no guarantee that the bug won’t trigger again. However, some users on the official thread seem to have solved the problem with this method.

The wait is over.
GOALS is now live on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. A competitive football game built around responsiveness, pure skill, and true player control.

The better procedure is to install the game using the Xbox app on PC. If you don’t have the app, you can download it for free. You’ll need an Xbox/

account to download the game. This will take extra time if you don’t have one. If you have, simply search up the game, approve the prompts, and the download will start.

Thankfully, the bug doesn’t trigger when you download GOALS from the Xbox app. This also tells me that the problem could be entirely on Steam’s side. Thankfully, you can use the same account on your PC irrespective of which platform you’re using. I am using the Xbox version for now, and you should do the same.
