    Hey @strycore Origin does not currently support Linux, as such our teams are not able to offer assistance with issues running it on the platform.

  • Hi @EA_Darko

    I'm aware that Origin doesn't provide Linux support, I am however providing the software needed to run Origin on Linux (similar to Steam and Proton).

    This is not about running Origin on Linux per se, it's about a security vulnerability in your backend that cause recent versions of OpenSSL to refuse connecting to your servers. If the Origin client or the EA App are updated to use OpenSSL 3, the same problem will occur on Windows too.

    I have reached out to the security team as well to let them know about the CVE.

    Outside of this issue, Origin has been working on Linux rather nicely. I have an EA Play subscription and have no issue playing Origin games on Linux computers or the Steam Deck

    Hey @strycore I'm going to lock this thread.

    If you are running Origin on an unsupported OS using third-party unsupported software to run it then you may run into issues and unfortunately, we are not able to offer support for unsupported OS or software.
