I preorder Battlefield 2042 Standard Edition on steam and I want to upgrade it to gold edition should I refund the game and buy the gold edition or is there another way also I am worried about the game duplicating in origin and it may cause some issue.

Yea I would probably refund the game and then repurchase it as I'm not aware of any other way to upgrade to another edition.

I'm guessing that if I got the game via a code, I'm pretty much SOL right?

@furiousmustache Well, a free game is great in any capacity, but if you were hoping to upgrade it, then yes.

Perhaps you could sell it or re-gift it?

Could also be a matter of wait and see too. As in play the free game you got and wait to see if an upgrade path comes out after release day.

I mean it wasn't really free, but it would really be nice if EA gave us an option to upgrade because I'd really like to play on the 12th. I already used the key, because I wanted to play the beta.

Can I Upgrade my 2042 Pre-Order from Standard to Ultimate, without getting EA Play or Play Pro, & without accidentally ending up with 2 purchases of the game? If so, how is it done correctly?
Thank you so much for your time. 🙂

@TyraxLightning There is currently no way to upgrade any Edition of the game outside EA Play Pro.

The only work-around would be to refund the Battlefield 2042 Standard Edition and purchase the Edition you want.

I got the game free from Nvidia. Can I refund it?
