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:

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.

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

Looking for a month trial for a neighbor kid who just got an xb1 if anyone knows where it's cheap or has one lying around. I had two but they were expired. TIA

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.

Think there is an offer to get a month of ea access for €1 at the moment

marcbrophy · 18-08-2020 6:26pm

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

It kicked me out of a game for an update of the app.

I think he is referring to the name of the annual event hosted by Electronic Arts at E3, EA Play Live.

Ah yes. This computes

Not sure if it's my internet or Xbox or even EA. but is anyone else having issues with battlefield 3 and bad company 2 online games?

Xbox won't connect to Xbox live. But everything else (Xbox one online games, apps etc) work fine.

Anyone else having this issue?
