    @kirstey08  Yes, you'll lose the DLC you've already bought.  I mean, it'll still be accessible through your current account, just not your new one.

    If you really want a version of Sims 4 with all available languages, what you can do, once you're back in your home country, is have EA customer support remove the base game (ONLY the base game, make that very clear to them) from your Origin account so you can purchase it again.  Since you'll be located in a country that offers the global version of Sims 4 (all languages), you should receive that version.

    But again, this is not a problem if you're okay playing only in English.  The U.K. English-only version will work anywhere and allow you to add DLC to it from anywhere.

@kirstey08  You can buy DLC wherever you happen to be, and the packs will all work with your current base game.  I'm just saying you'll still be stuck with the English-only version, if that's what you have now.  If that bothers you, there are other ways around it too; let me know if you want that info.

@puzzlezaddict 

Thank you.

If I buy the base game in another origin account after I go back to my home country. Will I lose all dlc ? ( I have already bought some dlc in the UK store)
