Dragon Age Origins: Will it run on Windows XP, Vista and 7?

1. Dragon Age: Origins officially works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, and Windows 11. However, you may experience problems when playing on Steam. From January 1, 2024, the Steam client only works with Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating systems. You will not run the Valve application on older versions of Windows.
2. The solution to the above problem may be to purchase the game in another digital store, e.g. GOG. That version does not require a client to be installed and also does not have any DRM, i.e. it does not require key activation or an internet connection. You can download the game file and easily install it on XP, Vista, 7 or 8 systems.

Dragon Age Origins: Does it work on Steam Deck?

1. Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition is not supported by Steam Deck. So it may not run at all or there may be serious problems with it. It is not excluded that Valve will add support for Dragon Age: Origins in the future.
