Pre-Ordering with EA Play Pro

Do we have to pre-order the standard edition in order to get the benefits described for EA Play Pro members?

  • Hey @Zebidiah

    Kompura has it right. If you've got an active EA Play Pro membership you'll get full access to the Ultimate Edition of the game starting on the 15th of October. You don't have to pre-order the game ahead of time.

  • To clarify further; will the upcoming beta be avalaible for EA Play Pro members without "pre-ordering"?

    I am under the impression that having the EA Play Pro yearly subscription includes "pre-order" perks without having to acutally "pre-order"...

    Thanks!

  • If I get all the perks of ultimate version of battlefield 2042 including preorder bonuses via EA play pro and my ea play pro subscription ended say 3 months after and decided to buy the standard version of the battlefield 2042 instead and not renew my ea play subscription, do I still have DLCs, battle passes, and other perks I got from the ultimate version 3 months ago?

    @STORMRAIDR22 No.

    If you let your EA Play Pro subscription expire, you will lose the perks and bonuses associated with the Ultimate Edition of Battlefield 2042, unless you buy a stand-alone copy of Ultimate Edition as well.
  • Arent they tied to your account? Especially now that Battlefield 2042 supports cross-play and cross-progression so all items and services should be shared among the supported devices.

    If what youre saying is true then I wont have the skins, battle pass, etc in PS5 standard version even if I have them from the PC ultimate version of the game?

    As far as I know once you acquire an item whether through perks or game progressions it's yours permanently and wont disappear from your locker or inventory just because you play a different edition of the game.

    @STORMRAIDR22As long as you have a licensed copy of the Ultimate Edition of the game, whether that be through EA Play Pro or from a stand-alone purchase, you will have access to the associated bonuses included with that Edition.

    It will persist and be available on any other platform you have the game installed on. For example, if you have one copy of Ultimate Edition on PS5 and Standard Edition on PC, you will still have the Ultimate Edition bonuses available on both platforms as long as they are linked to the same EA account.

    @STORMRAIDR22 You are certainly welcome to test your theory, but that is not how this game is being marketed and it is not aligned with what EA Community Managers have described.
