EA blocks the European publishing rights to Ridge Racer 6 & Dead to Rights?
So I finally found out why Ridge Racer 6 and Dead to Rights are only available in the USA xbox digital store and not in any of the European countries xbox digital stores. They are made by Bandai Namco and normally published by them but EA became the publisher for Europe (or co-publisher), according to an old eurogamer news article. So please EA, re-publish these games on the European xbox digital storefronts. I am writing here as there doesn't seem to be any way to contact anyone about this in any other way. Just posted it on X under one of EA's posts but from experience those that run X accounts for companies never see posts like this. Pick up that phone, call Bandai Namco, look over that old contract, and either publish, co-publish or let them re-publish it in Europe. Consoles are going all digital so those few used discs in the wild won't help anyone. Also more people will be able to enjoy.

Did EA have anything to do with Silent Hill: Homecoming on xbox store as it is also not available in Europe on xbox store, but is in the USA.EA playtesting - Platforms
Hello I applied for the latest EA playtesting, i have beta tested every Battlefield since BF2!! So i thought i would look at the new one. I was accepted for beta testing and received a link.... Only issue is it is for Xbox and not for PC! Now i do have an xbox it has just been 400miles away for 9 months!. Does anyone know how i could contact EA playtesting to see if i can get a PC link? I have tried updating my preferences.......Ukrainian language
Ukrainian language Dear EA team, I am a fan of your games and a user of your services! I am contacting you again with the same question. I live in Ukraine, I understand and communicate equally in Ukrainian and Russian. Since you have removed Russian subtitles. Do you plan to add Ukrainian subtitles to your games or do you plan to return Russian subtitles to your games? I ask you to consider adding Ukrainian subtitles to your games, because there are many players from Ukraine who would like to play games without a phone and a dictionary, understanding what is happening in the game. Thank you for your understanding! I play on ps5.
EA, Stop Ignoring Us: Xbox Accounts Stuck on Unrecoverable EA Profiles
This is a collective appeal on behalf of the many users who have, over the years, experienced the same recurring issue – and still have no solution. The problem is simple but severe: Players lose access to their EA account, and as a result, they are unable to unlink it from their Xbox profile. Without EA's help, they are permanently locked out of using EA services on Xbox. And EA Support has failed to provide effective assistance. We are not talking about isolated incidents. This is a widespread and years-old problem, affecting hundreds (if not thousands) of players. It continues to appear regularly in EA Forums, Reddit, Microsoft support threads, and gaming communities. It’s time to acknowledge that this is not a user mistake – this is a systemic failure in account management and support policy. The Problem Xbox profiles often become automatically linked to old EA accounts – sometimes accounts that are no longer accessible, deleted, or tied to an email that no longer exists. Players cannot unlink the Xbox profile from the EA account unless they verify the original EA account. If the user has no access to the email or recovery methods (due to age, lost credentials, or deactivated accounts), EA support refuses to help. Microsoft confirms they cannot unlink EA accounts on their end. EA's stance is rigid: “No verification, no unlinking.” Even if the account is clearly inactive or the user is verified through Xbox/Origin credentials. Support tickets are often closed without action. Chats end with no resolution. Users are passed between departments, but nothing changes. Recent Example (May 2025) Just yesterday, I posted the following here on EA’s forums, and it summarizes the problem: “I can't unlink my Xbox account from an old EA account that I don't have access to anymore. EA Support told me there’s nothing they can do. I just want to play EA games again, but I’m locked out of all online services because my Xbox is linked to a ghost account.” Full Post Here This is not a one-off. It is one of many. What Players Are Asking For We are not asking for special treatment. We are asking for a realistic, user-focused solution to a well-known issue. Specifically: A process for unlinking Xbox accounts when the original EA account cannot be recovered. This could involve verifying identity via Xbox Live data, Xbox account ownership, or linking proof. Better support escalation paths. Not just canned responses and auto-closed tickets. Real human review for unresolved account access cases. Transparency on what can and cannot be done. Many users are told “there’s nothing we can do” – while others manage to get unlinking done after dozens of failed attempts. The policy is inconsistent. The Bigger Picture Many affected users have: Lost access to EA Play/Game Pass benefits despite paying for them. Abandoned EA games completely because the account issues make playing impossible. Created entirely new Xbox accounts, losing years of progress and purchases. Spent hours or days dealing with EA support without a single result. We are asking EA to take responsibility and implement system-level fixes. This is a trust issue. Players who lose access to their EA account should not be cut off from Xbox games they legally own or subscribe to. Supporting Evidence: Community Reports Date Source & Link Summary May 16, 2025 EA Forum User unable to unlink Xbox from old EA account; EA Support states "nothing we can do". April 2025 Microsoft Community Xbox Gamertag linked to an old/unknown EA account; EA will not unlink it, stating the account is deleted. April 2022 Microsoft Community EA refuses to unlink Xbox from deleted EA account; GDPR request ignored. February 2021 Reddit - r/Xbox EA demands code sent to inactive email; user locked out despite valid Xbox account. Early 2021 Microsoft Community User unable to unlink EA account; Microsoft confirms EA is sole authority. November 2018 Overclockers UK Forum Player locked to 10-year-old EA account; EA support unhelpful after multiple attempts. And many more... Final Call EA, this is a growing trust and accessibility issue. Gamers should not be permanently blocked from their Xbox content because of a policy that assumes email access is forever. Technology evolves. People change accounts. But support systems must evolve with that. We urge you to: Recognize this as a longstanding issue. Commit to a workable solution for affected users. Respond to the community with clarity and action. This isn’t just about one player. This is about hundreds of us, waiting for a fair resolution. EA - in the name of all gamers - please fix this!
