    @l_Nic3_GaM3r_l Thanks for trying those steps, if you are still getting an error you need to activate the game on Origin and need a key, we would want to reach out to Steam Support for a product key to activate on Origin.

Hey @l_Nic3_GaM3r_l Thanks for the update, unfortunately, I can't read the screenshot you sent in, to confirm if the error message you're getting is similar to, "...unidentified game you must first activate it on your EA account...". 

If so some of the things you can try are:

  • Disabling any VPN, or additional security on your device or network, then running Steam and Origin
  • If Family View is enabled in Steam, disable it.
  • Set the game to run as an administrator.
  • If Steam and Origin are installed on separate storage drives, you could try with Steam and Origin installed to the same storage drive.
  • Try running your device in a Clean Boot.
