EA Access - Xbox One Only


Recommended Posts

EA is coming out with a great subscription based service for Xbone owners that will take the place of the EA Sports season ticket.

$5 a month or $30 a year gets you:

* Access to the Vault, a downloadable bank of full version EA games that you can play all you want as if you owned them outright... This will start with Madden 25, Fifa 14, Battlefield 4 and Peggle 2. But the selection will grow throughout the year.

* Pre-release versions of retail games; much like the early access with the season ticket, download and play full builds of games like Madden, NHL etc 5 days early and have all progress carry over to the retail versions.

*10% discount on EA microtransactions

I am for sure signing up for this as soon as it drops later this month, $5 a month for 4 games right now, and who knows how many going forward is worth it. Having NHL 15 5 days early (used to be 3 days) is the cherry on the top.

Sorry Sony fans, no plans for this on PS4 anytime soon.

Could care less about the 4 games there, but if I was getting an XboxOne I'd buy the 1 month just for early NHL 15 access. Already have FIFA 14, Madden I don't care about, already have BF4 and never play it.

EA kind of giving the shaft to Sony, but that's what happens when Microsoft throws cash at you. Oh well. :P

Lol, Sony fanboyism incoming? Xbox fanboyism has already shown up in this thread.

This is currently the only thing making me want an Xbox One. Maybe I'll grab one soon just for the early accesses.

I think you're confusing fanboyism with excitement. We're not sat here saying 'EA gave Microsoft exclusivity because the XB1 is the better console, better games, more investment, regular updates' etc, we're saying 'PS4 boys be gutted'. I shudder to think what the PS4 fanboys would have been like had this news been the other way around.
