the silly ea app-steam-ea play conflict

so ea gave us a new app to play from which is great, but we can't play older games as it's not added on the ea app. meanwhile ea pro got taken down from steam as it's now only for sale through ea app.

sooooooo if you want ea play old games such as f1 2021 you must buy ea play from steam, however, if you want to play new games such as FIFA 23 or f1 22 you must buy ea play pro from the ea app because your ea play subscription isn't cross-play so if you have it on steam ,its not on ea app

ea really need to add all the games that are included on the ea play on their app or they need to offer ea play pro on steam

cause this is bad and no one should buy two ea play subscriptions to enjoy all ea games

    Hey @007amza,

    EA Play Pro was never available via Steam, only via Origin/EA app.
    EA Play (normal) is available via Steam, however.

    If you would like to purchase/play F1 2021 on PC, this is indeed only available via Steam. F1 22 is available via Steam and Origin/EA app.

    It is indeed the case that none of the EA Play (Pro) memberships is cross-platform. An exception is the EA Play that you get via Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, as this includes EA Play for Xbox and EA Play (normal version) for PC, via the EA app (only).
