    Expect A Way Out and FIFA 19 to arrive on Access next month, both have been confirmed as launch games for the PS4 on July 24th.

    FIFA 19 showed up in the EA access tab in "My Apps & Games" and is now downloading so I take it that it's now in the Vault

    Should be. Launched into the vault on ps4. A Way Out should go in the vault pretty soon too, finally. Longest game from release to vault at 18 months.

    A Way Out is out for PS4 and not Xbox atm. although PS4 does not have as many games as the Xbox does.
    I wonder will they release didn't games to each vault.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,507 ✭✭✭sniper_samurai


    Anthem now in the vault.

    Still no sign of A Way Out despite being available on PS4, this is the longest an EA released game has been released without being added.

    I wonder if anyone has asked them?
    Is it a possibility they genuinely forgot? :pac:

    I have, no response.

    I have, no response.

    Has to be licensing then if it's on one platform vs the other!
    It's even on Origin Access on PC, so something fishy is going on :)

    Just checking if i setup EA access on young lads XB1 will he get access to fifa20? hes not sure if he wants to but it out fully yet.
    I normally do similar with games on PC with origin access.

    On Origin access new games get a limited 10 hours game time with origin basic but then you need to buy it if you wish to play after the time expires.

    However there is also origin access premiere where you can play all games while subscribed, the vault is not an issue you own everything once subbed.


    Does ea access have a similar offering?

    It works the same as the base Origin Access, unfortunately there is no subscription similar to the Premiere offering on PC.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,427 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    Yep, 10 hour trial will be out next Thursday the 19th for EA Access and Origin Access :)

    Best to put a few hours into that before committing to the purchase! Smart kid :)

    Yes, it's got a ten hour limit, and then you have to pay to play it once the trial is over. It'll be added into the vault some time next year, usually in a May to September window, after which it'll be free to play.

    Also, the trials are a bit different on Xbox because of the "Resume" function on the OS. If you're finished playing the trial and want to go back to it later, make sure to quit the game altogether, not just leave it. To do this, go to the home screen, highlight the game, press the hamburger button, and select "Quit App/Game"

    Seems A Way Out has been added to Access now without any announcement. About time seeing as it has been available on PS4 for months and is by far the longest a game has stayed out of the vault, about 20 months after its release.

    The only things they released last year were NFS and Fallen Order other than the sports games. Both won't be in Access until Easter at the earliest.

    Madden comes out Super Bowl weekend like clockwork.

    Fair point I guess!

    I was just noting that the last 20 or so posts on this thread span an entire year! Not too much activity going on :)

    NHL 20 went in the vault a couple of weeks ago and FIFA was added today.

    It only took one game to start losing my rag with this again.
    Just so many little issues and quirks that annoy me.

    Never sold a FIFA as quick as 20, think I sold it after a week.

    I'll leave it until I have a few drinks tomorrow when I'm up for playing something with music, dont think I can manage playing it day to day.

    Not that we need to update the thread title or anything, but the service got a name change!
    It's now EA Play

    https://twitter.com/EAAccess/status/1295767665500291072?s=20

    Think I've heard that name before :D
