Can I transfer my Sims 4 Expansion pack from Origin to EA Play with Game Pass ?

Hello,

I originally has a subscription with Origin and I cancelled it after the EA Play switch. I had EA Play subscription for a while and decided to get the Xbox Game Pass as well. I cancelled the EA Play subscription as Game Pass offers me EA Play all in one.

I had the Eco Lifestyle expansion pack for Sims 4 purchased on Origin but now I can't play it anymore as I don't have the Origin subscription. I would like to be able to access it on EA Play but it doesn't automatically transfer.

How can I do that ?

Thank you

    @Syra22  Do you mean the EA Desktop App?  Anything your EA account owns, including Sims 4 packs, is supposed to show up in both Origin and the Desktop App.  (The exception is a subscription through Game Pass, which Origin doesn't support.)  In practice, the app is still in beta and doesn't have full functionality.

    Still, most packs do work for me in the app.  Please open it, click Sims 4, click the DLC button, and see whether Eco Lifestyle is listed as owned.  If it's not, contact EA customer support to make sure it's still on your account.

    By the way, if this becomes a headache, or you decide to cancel Game Pass in the future, you may want to buy the Sims 4 base game outright.  It's as low as $5 U.S. or the equivalent during Origin's somewhat frequent sales.
