Symptoms

The EA App opens, the game starts and immediately crashes. Depending on the Proton variant I get a black window for a few seconds, before it crashes, but with Proton 7.0.6 I don't even get that.

I get the same behavior on my other machine with a Ryzen 7950X and a 7900XTX

Reproduction

Start the game with Proton 7.0.6

Start by reproducing Need for Speed Unbound (Steam AppID 1846380) with Proton 7.0.6 on the reported system and inspect the linked Proton log. Compare the black-window and immediate-crash behavior across Proton variants and use the EA App launch path to narrow the failure. Done means identifying a reproducible compatibility cause and confirming a fix across the reported Radeon systems.
