Thank you, this is what I've already tried but it didn't appear in My Games before I uninstalled the game and definitely isn't there now.

You need to log in to Origin with the account you first installed with and install the game through there.

You can find your game in the 'My games' tab.

In that case, this is advised:

The game no longer shows up in Origin

Try the following things: 

  • Restart Origin.
  • Log out and back in and use the email address instead of the user name. Make sure to use the one you used to register the game in the first place.
  • Reinstall Origin.
  • Restart your router/modem.
  • Make sure the game isn't hidden by accident. To check, put the filter to Hidden Games. If it's there, right-click on the game to unhide ((click on the spoiler below to view an exemplary screenshot))

  • Get in touch with an EA Game Advisor.
