Today EA announced a new subscription service called “EA Access,” exclusively for Xbox One. For $4.99 a month or $29.99 a year users will gain unlimited access to “The Vault” which will contain numerous full EA games. We don’t know yet exactly which games you’ll be able to get your hands on when the service launches in earnest, but EA have announced that FIFA ’14, Madden NFL 25, Peggle 2 and Battlefield 4 will all be available in the EA Access beta.
Electronic Arts has unveiled how EA Access will be arriving on Steam and 'coming soon'.
Featuring the complete nanosuit experience, The Crysis Trilogy has now joined the EA Access vault as a title that's free for those that subscribe to the EA service on Xbox One consoles.
It's been revealed that EA Access will be coming to Steam in the near future, as various EA games have been added to the storefront.
"The fact that EA is partnering with Microsoft and the Xbox One specifically is a little odd but not too surprising. With a service as risky as this EA will want to start small. "
noooo they went to sony and sony shunned them.
This was yesterday's news not today's. There are about 5 other stories covering the same thing already. Doubt this will get approved...especially since the person submitting wants hits to their own site.
EA, the next step? those greedy (insert profanity here) have trouble taking the first step "pleasing the consumer" I doubt i'll buy an EA game again, not new anyway, BF4 is an atrocious game
If this was announced for both consoles, I think the reaction from the gaming community would be pretty cynical. It's EA after all, plue gamers tend to resist pushes to digital and new pricing models.
I might do this for the sports games. Always hated buying them every year. Now with this I might be behind but might have access to them all in time every year. Also 10% off games I can't wait on plus play 5 days before anyone else. To start its not worth it to me since I own everything they offering, but come September might be worth jumping in for the discount and the wait until better games come out. I just can't wait for Fifa but the rest I can wait until its in the vault.
