− | + | This article contains information on '''Downloadable content''' for ''[[Dragon Age: Origins]]''. Some downloadable content can be purchased within the game with BioWare points, through the Xbox Marketplace, or through the PlayStation Store, while others were pre-order promotional items and can no longer be obtained. Several of the promotional items are now available for anyone with a BioWare Social Network account. See [http://social.bioware.com/da2/dlc_bundle/ here] for more information. |

+ | [[BioWare]] originally announced during the final stages of the development of ''[[Dragon Age: Origins]]'' that two years' worth of '''downloadable content''' were planned for release. The planned DLC would include items such as [[Rings (Origins)|rings]] and [[Amulets (Origins)|amulets]], short adventures like ''[[Warden's Keep]]'' and full expansion packs with dozens of hours of new gameplay. With the earlier than expected arrival of ''[[Dragon Age II]]'', ''[[Witch Hunt]]'' was confirmed to be the last DLC release for ''Dragon Age: Origins''. |
||
+ | |||
+ | == DLC items and Awakening == |
||
+ | Not all of the ''Dragon Age: Origins'' DLC can be accessed in ''[[Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening]]''. All equipment obtained in ''[[Return to Ostagar]]'' transfers successfully on all platforms. The items obtained in ''[[The Stone Prisoner]]'' import only on the PC. Additionally, while the equipment from ''[[Warden's Keep]]'' does not transfer on any platform, the [[Power of Blood]] abilities do (as of patch 1.04). |
||
+ | |||
+ | None of the promotional items import successfully, except for [[Memory Band]]. Having any of the non-importable items equipped on [[the Warden]] may cause their stats (including fatigue) to be permanently stuck on the character. |

- For downloadable content for Dragon Age: Inquisition, see Downloadable content (Inquisition).
This article contains information on Downloadable content for Dragon Age: Origins. Some downloadable content can be purchased within the game with BioWare points, through the Xbox Marketplace, or through the PlayStation Store, while others were pre-order promotional items and can no longer be obtained. Several of the promotional items are now available for anyone with a BioWare Social Network account. See here for more information.
BioWare originally announced during the final stages of the development of Dragon Age: Origins that two years' worth of downloadable content were planned for release. The planned DLC would include items such as rings and amulets, short adventures like Warden's Keep and full expansion packs with dozens of hours of new gameplay. With the earlier than expected arrival of Dragon Age II, Witch Hunt was confirmed to be the last DLC release for Dragon Age: Origins.
DLC items and Awakening
Not all of the Dragon Age: Origins DLC can be accessed in Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening. All equipment obtained in Return to Ostagar transfers successfully on all platforms. The items obtained in The Stone Prisoner import only on the PC. Additionally, while the equipment from Warden's Keep does not transfer on any platform, the Power of Blood abilities do (as of patch 1.04).
None of the promotional items import successfully, except for Memory Band. Having any of the non-importable items equipped on the Warden may cause their stats (including fatigue) to be permanently stuck on the character.

Be aware that a majority of the DLC requires an active internet connection and also requires you to be logged into your Bioware/EA Online account that you used to purchase or redeem the content. Otherwise you will get Unauthorized info in the Installed Content.
The Stone Prisoner, Warden's Keep, Return to Ostagar, The Darkspawn Chronicles, Leliana's Song, The Golems of Amgarrak, Feastday Gifts, Feastday Pranks and Witch Hunt require the corresponding offer files to work. The installation procedure for offers is the same as that for any other DLC.
- DAO_PRC_OCP_1 - Offer file for Return To Ostagar
- DAO_PRC_OCP_2 - Offer file for The Stone Prisoner
- DAO_PRC_ONRX_1 - Offer file for Warden's Keep
- DAO_PRC_DRK_O - Offer file for The Darkspawn Chronicles
- DAO_PRC_LEL_O - Offer file for Leliana's Song
- DAO_PRC_GIB_O - Offer file for The Golems of Amgarrak
- DAO_PRC_STR_O - Offer file for Witch Hunt
- DAO_PRC_OCP_3 - Offer file for Feastday Gifts
- DAO_PRC_OCP_7 - Offer file for Feastday Pranks
- DAO_PRC_OCP_13 - Offer file for Feastday Combo Pack
Make sure the offer file is really installed, by looking in C:\Users\%username%\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\AddIns, there should be a folder of the same name. If it is not there, unpack it from the dazip file (from inside Contents\Offers). It might also help to put the manifest.xml file from the dazip to its respective folder within AddIns for main file and Offer folder for offer files).
All DLC's are included in the GOG version and is DRM free and doesn't require any authorization to use any DLC, however the collector edition items are release with a free patch.
You can bypass the offers files not working by doing the following:
1. Go to C:\Users\%username%\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\Settings
II. Copy the AddIns.xml file somewhere safe (as a backup)
C. Open the original AddIns.xml in Notepad. (notepad++ works great as you can search for all instances of RequiresAuthorization="1" and then replace them all at once with RequiresAuthorization="0" using the notepad++ Find option. *The Find Option is the Binoculars icon*)
4. Search for RequiresAuthorization="1" and change each instance to RequiresAuthorization="0"
V. Save, start game, enjoy.
