Community ManagerHi all,
Thanks a lot for updating this thread with new reports.
I have a question for you all; once you make progress on the platform where you've actually bought the Pass on (so either standalone (if this is an option) or via the Gold/Ultimate Editions of the game), finish a round & close down everything --> and play the game on the other platform you own the base game on, does that progress carry over for you and does it show the same progress etc.?
I would also really appreciate it if it's possible for you to maybe post some screenshots of the Battle Pass (progress) of what you're seeing on the platform where you own the pass on & the platform where you only own the base game. Many thanks in advance!
Hi @EA_Leeuw ,
I have the ultimate edition on my XB Series X. When I play on the xbox, where I have the premium battle pass, any progression I make is also noted on my PC version of the game (standard and no battle pass purchased).
Also, any progress made on my PC version of the game, is carried over to the xbox however, I need to rank up at least once on the xbox for it to give me the unlocks associated with the premium tier of the battle pass that I should have gained while playing PC
Once I receive the unlocks via the xbox, I am able to use on the PC.
- @SirFragALOT75 This is great but like why make it such a hassle? Like why force players to rank up on one just to unlock the items on the other? Why not just give access to it on both consoles?
@mccawwww Not sure if you are asking me or EA? I agree, it is a huge hassle. I expect this is unintended but who knows, they may very well knew this was the case and just want more of our hard earned $$. I hope they make this right and give us access across all platforms but I don’t have my hopes up. I will say that if this was intentional then I’ll be happy to step away from all things EA. After all, Battlefield is the only EA title I care about and while the new update is good, they still have a long way to go to earn my trust back.

That and I could have sworn that pre-release or soon after someone from EA/DICE specified this will support cross-commerce and progression. Am I mistaken/remembering incorrectly? (not saying you are with EA, but replying to your point, for clarity)
