Hello. I was wondering if I were to download Battlefield 4 on game pass on PC, is it possible to link my origin PC account to keep my progress? Thanks!

    Well the offline progress is stored on your PC locally under your Windows user account. This means that you can create a backup and transfer the saves when they aren't carried over. In this case I think that you'll keep the progress as you will have to boot the game through the EA app. 

    As for the online progress, this is stored on your EA account. Your Xbox account is linked to the EA account and if you are playing on PC, you will still have to launch the game through the EA app. That means that you will keep your progress.

    Hey @BeardedWonder195,

    There is a promotion where you can get EA Play with the Xbox Game Pass. To make use of the promotion, you have to make sure that you have linked your Xbox account to your EA account and that you have downloaded and installed the EA app.

    Then you log into the EA app with your Xbox credentials and you can make use of the promo. 

    Or are you asking if there is cross progression on BF4 between Xbox and PC?

    @EA_JasonHI, thanks for the reply. I guess I should clarify. I was really looking to see if my progress made on my PC origin account would be transferred to my PC game pass account if I were to download the game through game pass on PC. Thanks!
