You only need to link your accounts the first time you play an EA game on Steam.

1. Sign in to Steam.
2. Click Play to launch an EA game from Steam.
3. Install the EA app if you haven’t already.
4. The EA app will launch and ask you to link your Steam account and your EA Account.
5. Log in to the EA app using your EA Account info or create a new EA Account.
6. Steam will install your game and let you know when it’s ready to play.

You can unlink your Steam account from your EA Account if you want to link it to a different EA Account. The new EA Account you link to can't have been linked to a Steam account before.

Once your accounts are linked, you can't unlink your Steam account again for another six months.

Make sure you understand the risks of unlinking your accounts before you follow our steps.

1. Go to the Connections tab of your EA Account settings.
2. Click the Unlink button next to your Steam account.
3. You’ll get a code to verify your identity. Enter the code and select Submit.
4. Read the disclaimer and make sure you want to unlink, knowing all the risks above.
5. Check the box next to I understand and wish to continue.
6. Click Unlink.
