Steam's Mass Effect 3 DLCs
Will Steam's Mass Effect 3 DLCs work with Mass Effect 3 which I just bought from Origin months ago ?

Why wouldn't they?
I mean you were able to use the Origin DLCs for ME1 and 2 for the Steam versions too

Yeah but the DLC for ME 1+2 are just installers you could download from the Bioware site.
The Mass Effect 3 DLC are integrated into Origin and need Origin to run.

:teddy_talk: Mass Effect 3 has one DLC which is a DLC pack.
Mass Effect 3 on Steam isn't the vanilla version, its a Mass Effect 3 Digital Deluxe version.


And, Andromeda is the same thing, its a Andromeda Upgrade version with 2 DLC's
It started wth 4 DLC's which I bought and now the storefront shows only 2 DLC's, I think the other 2 DLC's are now incorporated into the base game, as Andromeda Upgrade version.


All Steam and non-Origin
Oh and don't forget to sign up for a EA account


...and if youre like me, I'm a console player an prefer the Xbox controller, there's a Mass Effect 3 controller mod at Nexus, it isn't a upzip then drag-an-drop and replace files, its a convoluted install with a separate controller mod loading thing

BTW, if you own Mass Effect 3 and the DLC on Origin and buy the main game on Steam again, the DLC from Origin get recognized by the Steam version and even download correctly over Origin to the Steam installation.

So you dont need to rebuy the DLC if you already got them on Origin, just the main game.
