I found two versions in the additional content of bf2042, one is the gold edition and the other is the ultimate edition. I clicked to upgrade the game before. The version I purchased in advance is the ultimate edition, but I found the gold edition in the additional content. Is it because I clicked to upgrade the game? Will there be conflict if my play Pro stops renewing the game?

@DecreeNo9 I have the same thing showing since I have EA Play Pro at the moment. You stated earlier that you have EA Play Pro, so all it is showing is all the content that is included. You get the Ultimate Edition via EA Play Pro which includes all the content in the Gold Edition.

Why did I find two versions of bf2042 in the extra content

Hey @DecreeNo9,

Thanks for your visit to the forums!

I am not exactly sure what you mean regarding that you found two versions of additional content for Battlefield 2042? Are you playing on PC?
(I assume this because you mention Pro, as in EA Play Pro?)

There are three editions of Battlefield 2042: the Standard, Gold and Ultimate Edition.
EA Play Pro gives you the biggest and best edition there is, including all perks. So in this case; EA Play Pro gives you the Ultimate Edition of the game the same way as if you had purchased the game Ultimate Edition standalone, and you can make use of the perks of the Ultimate Edition as long as you have a valid EA Play Pro membership. 🙂

The bf2042 I played on my PC was purchased in origin. The versions I saw were gold and ultimate edition. I pre ordered Ultimate Edition. After I clicked to upgrade the game, I found gold in the additional content instead of in the game library

@DecreeNo9, I am sorry, but do you mean that you have played the Beta of Battlefield 2042? Because the game has not launched yet.

But yeah, sometimes it can happen that even if you have purchased a Standalone version of the game, when you have EA Play Pro you still get the option to "Upgrade" the version, because it comes with some extra sometimes. Therefore it is possible that you indeed see other items in your Origin Library. But as long as you actually own the Ultimate Edition and/or have the EA Play Pro membership, you should be good to go.

If you would like to be sure that everything went alright when you made the standalone purchase of the Ultimate Edition, and that everything is working as intended and not stuck or something (for example), I would recommend to reach out to our Live Support team to perform a quick check if your account and potentially billing/purchase history. You can reach them via https://help.ea.com/contact-us.

Good luck!

Yes, I played the 2042 beta test. At present, I have found two 2042 in the game library, one is the 2042 of the beta test, the other is the 2042 I ordered in advance. I didn't find the third one, but found gold in the additional content.
I did hear that EA play Pro has some exclusive benefits, but these do not seem to have any connection with gold.

Hey @DecreeNo9,

That is correct. EA Play Pro allows you to have access to the best edition there is. 🙂 So that would be the Ultimate Edition in this case.

I pre ordered ultimate edition before, and later I got Ultimate Edition through EA play pro. If so, there should be no gold in the additional content. I don't know what to do

@DecreeNo9, I am sorry, I am unable to see your attached picture.
When you own/have access to the Ultimate Edition of the game, Origin indeed also shows a checkmark next to the Gold Edition of the game on the Extra Content page. There should be a Gold Edition checkmark, as well as for what the Ultimate Edition content gives you.

I think you don't need to worry about that as you've bought Ultimate Edition this edition is a higher and you will get all content anyway.

I tried to contact EA customer service, but I couldn't access the web page, so I failed.

I can't open this picture myself. I can download the picture and open it. There are two 2042 on it
