Titanfall 2 already downloaded through Origin. Do I have to download it again through Steam?

[Marvin]

Wondering if there is a way for my already installed Titanfall 2 through origin to bypass Steam's attempt to download Titanfall 2.

I believe if you want to play it through Steam, you'll need to buy it on Steam.

You have to own the game in steam to do that.

Or else you can use "Add non steam game" option.

You should back the game up beforehand. I planned on using the origin version to avoid the steam download by pausing it after starting then moving the game over from origin to steamapps but I quickly figured out that origin actually deleted the game itself when I started the steam download.

So probably but you need to be careful not to get denied the chance to try it.

I already bought the game through Steam. I just downloaded it so it was no biggy. Thanks for the replies!
