@EA_Darko just to save your time, I've been investigating this issue for 3 days. As you can see from recent influx of posts about similar kind of issues, the main issue here is the following:
- People bought an EA game from Steam (or Epic) during the last 3-4 days.
- Trying to play the game ends up with EA App announcing "You don't have access"
- Any prior tricks like downloading Apex Legends etc. do not work
- It looks a lot like there is something wrong on EA side about granting EA accounts permissions to play games purchased from Steam (or Epic) stores
Please forward this information higher up.
- @EA_Darko are there next steps after checking accounts? Thanks.
Any other next steps? Thanks
Hey, same problem here. However I already owned Titanfall 2 on Origin before finally buying it on Steam. Now I can't launch the game from either Steam or the EA app. Steam version says there is a problem on EA's end. EA app prompts me to "Get the Game."

Launcher: SteamPlease update your application, its doesn't communicate with steam as it should. I bought NFS Unbound and was stuck on free trial and didnt launch never the less that I have a key in steam. After the game had an update it just disappear from the EA app library.... I also have installed apex legends, but in your app it doenst appear at all. When i click on apex legends i can download it again.. what is this ?! Why u allow at all purchases true third party application when your app cant manage to communicate with them properly?! Fix this is been a week and a half and i cannot play the game that I paid for!

Hey @KoalaCommando24,
We need the exact data, unfortunately. So "all games purchased on Steam" doesn't really help, sadly.
Please re-submit the requested data.

Anyone still having the "you don't have access" issue can try using origin instead. Ive just reinstalled origin and my battlefield 2042 from steam worked. Heres the link from one of their post.
They really need to fix their EA app.

doesnt work my games show up but still asks me for an activation code from my steam games
