[Old] PC - Dragon Age II 🐲 DLC Not Available To Download
It's one of those posts again!
I got Dragon Age II years ago somehow (my old Origin app had an activation date of 2015 - apparently this was from the Humble Origin Bundle 2?), and I just noticed that I never got the DLCs that were given away, my copy of the game says it's the Standard Edition (see attached photos) and there is no way for me to get the missing DLCs without buying the game again. I just spent the past day trying to figure out what to do but nothing I found online seems to have worked. I have:
Cleared my EA app cache, logged out and in again;
Downloaded the free DLC add-ons from https://help.ea.com/en/help/faq/dlc-for-classic-games/#dragonage/ and installed them (they show up as "Unauthorized" in the game);
Logged in to the Dragon Age keep to unlock the content manually there;
Logged in to my EA account via the game;
Synced the accounts between the keep and my computer manually several times;
Uninstalled and reinstalled the game;
Deleted the contents of the licenses folder;
Cleared all my characters at the Dragon Age keep.
Nothing seems to work. The game insists that I have to buy it again to get the DLC content.
So what can I do? Do I have to buy the game again?
Hey folks,
This issue was resolved by the studio team and has since been closed out for a while. If you are running into this issue, a new thread will be set up for visibility purposes.
Please also keep in mind that the DLC listed on the Download and buy DLC for classic EA games on PC only works for installs through Steam. The EA app already includes it in the download, so this will not work for those who play through it.
If you do not see the DLC, you can go to How to download and buy DLC for classic EA games
Please review that article first, as it may solve the issue. We also have quite a few threads on this exact issue, with steps to resolve it.
If, for some reason, they do not and DLC does not appear, it becomes an account issue, not a game issue. The EA app should show you all the DLC available that your account is entitled to.
Some of our Heroes and I will be checking in on these threads.Thanks!
