If I buy the Deluxe Edition on Xbox 360 and later move on to the Xbox One, will my Deluxe Edition DLC transfer over?

I own an Xbox 360 and played Dragon Age: Origins (CE) and Dragon Age 2 (Signature Edition) on it. 

I already have the Xbox 360 Deluxe Edition of Dragon Age: Inquisition preordered.

 

When I get an Xbox One, waiting for the eventual Rise of the Tomb Raider bundle to come out... hopefully packed with a 1TB internal drive and colored controller... 

 

and plan to get Dragon Age: Inquisition again for Xbox One, most likely a regular copy as Deluxe Editions are mostly likely sold out at that point...

 

will my deluxe edition from Xbox 360 carry over to Xbox One? Will the same system of Redeem code work?

 

I would very much like to have my DLC transfer between consoles rather than buying twice. If I have to buy twice chances are I might not pick up DA: I on Xbox One at all.

As far as I know, DLC is specific to the console it's purchased on. There are only a few instances in which DLC transfers from last gen to current gen, and those situations are pretty clearly spelled out by the marketing of those games.

Is there an official answer to this? Any Bioware mods that can give clarification?

I would say that's something you'd have to ask (Twitter seems your best bet) BioWare if they plan on having a step-up plan for people going from last-gen to now-gen consoles. Battlefield did have something that (you still had to pay ten bucks for it, still cheaper than buying it all over again though), so it's not impossible.

They gave an answer in previous threads about this. It's how Microsoft and sony do things and they dont allow transfers

Pretty much confirming what everyone above me has said. There are no plans to offer any kind of step-up program as was done back when the Xbox One and PS4 launched.

 

Any purchased DLC is locked to the console on which it was purchased. This is just how it works for Sony and Microsoft. The step-ups were a special arrangement for the time around those launches and that time is over.

Aye, DLC will always be console-locked unless MS and Sony change their minds, which isn't likely.

Well, it's not as bad as disc-locked content, that's for sure.

If they do a Season Pass then it could possibly work kinda like Activision for CoD players who got new consoles though thats a big maybe as Bioware has never done season passes to my knowledge

I didn't think the deluxe edition items would be console locked at all. 

 

I believed that the items you download will be redeemable through social.bioware.com much like the DA: Origins CE. 

And then when you log into your origin account, say on your xbox 360 and download the said item, the player owns the licence to the item.

Thus bypassing Sony's/Microsoft's rules and making it a Bioware and EA DLC.

 

i think this is the ideal outcome rather than keeping the content locked. It benefits both the consumer and the publisher by making it multifaceted. 

This was done when I didn't own the items for Dragon age entitlements a while ago.

No matter what you can download it and the licence would be given to the players.
