Cross platform co-op with EA account

[db]

Since the game requires an EA account to play between platform, can my Steam version play with my Xbox version, both using the same EA account?

sadly no

No, however, you do have some options. I assume you want to play with someone else in your house?

1- Local coop (aka "couch co-op") doing split screen on Xbox. You can both be offline and don't need an EA account.
2- Couch co-op on a PC with Steam - again, no EA account needed. You can do split screen, or even extend across two displays (monitors or TVs) using your video card settings so each person is full screen (be aware it will look a bit stretched since it's designed so both players are one screen)
3- one person plays on xbox with one EA account. Another person is on PC signed into a different EA account. Only one full copy of the game needed, and the other person gets the free Friend Pass. This requires one person to create a new EA account for the Friend Pass.

Hope that helps!

Thank you for the thorough reply. I was aware of the options you mentioned. I am afraid I did not made my intentions clear that I wanted to earn achievements simultaneously on both platforms. Sorry if I have wasted your time.
