  • Hi @Monopolymmonster 

    Please STOP creating new threads about this issue, I've already merged 6 together now. Also, I've removed personal information like ordernumbers as this is a PUBLIC FORUM.

    As mentioned you will not receive a product key or an activation key, your game has just been added to your Origin account.

    Now, please check that you are looking under "All Games" and NOT under "installed games" in Origin.

    Should there be a mistake and the game is not under "All Games" you should contact a person from EA who can look into your account:

    I'm trying to register my game but it says the serial code is invalid/already used

    Depending on the situation the solution to this may vary.

    You bought the game on Origin
    If you bought the game on Origin, it's not necessary to register the code anywhere. Download the Origin Client here: http://origin.com/download, login with the same email you bought the game with and find the game in the My Games tab within the Origin Client to download. You don't need the serial code.

    You bought the game on DVD and the box was sealed
    Make sure you typed the code right. The following letters look very similar and are easily mistaken for each other

    • 0, O and D
    • 8 and B
    • Z and 2


    If it still says it's invalid, try taking it back to the store you bought it from and exchange it. If they are not willing to do that, contact an EA Game Advisor with proof of purchase ready.

    You bought the game on DVD and the box was not sealed/it's a used game
    Used games cannot be re-registered. Take it back to where you bought it and get a refund.

    You bought a key from a key seller
    Contact the key seller for a replacement. If you bought the game from a unauthorized seller, it's possible that EA blocked the key if they were bought fraudulently by the seller. You're better off to only buy from authorized sellers.

    You have already registered the game yourself and are trying to reinstall the game
    The game does not need to be registered again. Login in the Origin Client with the Email/PW you first registered the game on and download and install the game from there. The game only needs to be registered once and you won't need the code again after your initial registration. This is true for both the DVD and the download version. You can skip the activation step on reinstalling.
