/!\ Question about DLCs and Season Pass
Hello,

I was wondering, if I already own all the DLCs for a game that a season pass normally contains but I don't have this season pass; do it considers that I own this season pass ? Like if I click on the season pass store page, does it says "in library" ?

Thanks.

If you own all the DLC but not from the season pass itself; it wont show that you own the season pass as only a direct purchase of that will count as owned. Season passes all have their own product ID. If you try to buy this after already owning content within it; you may receive a message saying something like ''you already own items contained in this package'' for example.

So will the price, if I buy the season pass afterward, will be down to 0€ ?

The season pass remains at full price. Any missing content must be bought seperately in the DLC section on the store page. Sometimes you can get a discount on DLC bundles so you can complete the collection of content in which the price does go down taking into account of what you own already.

No. Season passes are not bundles per se. Some even include exclusive content.

You will get a warning about duplicate content on checkout, but the specifics are up to how the season pass works.
Some do just package all DLC into one purchase, others are treated seperately, other offer these exclusive contents. If it is just linked to the individual DLC and nothing else, there might be a chance it will get marked as already owned.

Same way like Gold Editions work on some games. If they jusst bundle the base game and the additional content, you will be informed that you already have it in your library. If it is treated as a completely new app, you can fall trap into buying it twice.

Ok, thanks for the answer. I'm speaking about the Lego Batman 3 Season Pass, I know for this one that there is no exclusive content.

That really intrigues me actually.
