Does it apply to all users on a ps4? Me and my brother share a ps4 and would like to know if we need to buy one version or 2. Note: we own BF2, just wondering about the upgrade.
I was wondering the same thing before I bought it did you try it yet ?
DICE TeamHey @Johnny2022det @newYODACHU, unfortunately the upgrade is not cross platform.

DICE TeamI am in the exact situation and that just doesn't make any sense. It would cost less to just buy the game as a non-upgrade ($40) - which we know all accounts can access- than to pay for 2 upgrades ($50). Right now only the master account can access the upgrade that we paid for.
@kidd5574 I can confirm after speaking to PS support that you DO have to purchase the upgrade for each account (just like all DLC). So if you plan on playing it with 2 people, you might as well just buy the full game for $40. If you already bought the upgrade, you can get a refund if you haven't played it yet. If you have, you're probably out of luck.
I am in a slightly similar position regarding DLC across accounts. I bought a Japanese version of the game and wanted to upgrade to Celebration. If I purchased the upgrade on my wife's Japanese PSN account, it would not work on mine and I am not levelling up again. It makes no sense at all and is absolutely fleecing people. Imagine if you have a couple of kids who play the game and share a PS4 ... multiple purchases. EA's greed is beyond measure. It is a great game, but the mess that has surrounded it - initial launch, the loot box fiasco - this issue with DLC - is rotten! Also, they are losing money because a lot of people either will not, or will be reluctant to buy it due to the account issues. So annoying!
