EA Access has shaped up to be a pretty great deal for gamers. The Xbox One exclusive program (forgoing the recent announcement of Origin Access which functions nearly the same), offers a ton of benefits to its members. The biggest of these is The Vault, a collection of EA titles that members can download and play for free. Fourteen games have been added to the EA Access Vault in total so far, and it seems that members won’t be the only ones that get to play them for free.
EA Access Free Play Days are a new initiative announced a moment ago. The program will open up The Vault, giving all Xbox Live Gold members access for a limited time. The first of these will start on January 19th and run until January 24th. Anyone with an Xbox One and an active Xbox Live Gold membership can take part, downloading and playing any or all of the fourteen games throughout the time period.
“From January 19 – 24, all Xbox Live Gold members can play every game in the EA Access Vault, all for free. Take the streets with your crew in Battlefield Hardline. Feel the game in FIFA 15. Drive it like you stole it in Need For Speed™ Rivals. Lead the Inquisition in Dragon Age: Inquisition. Defend Crazy Dave’s tacos in Plants vs. Zombies™ Garden Warfare with your friends, and put your skills to the test in EA SPORTS™ UFC® career mode.”
This is meant to be just a taste of what EA Access has to offer for its members, with the plan being that gamers might decide to sign up after getting to try out the features. These features include a 10% discount on all EA digital titles, along with early access to big releases like Unravel. If you decide to sign up you can do so for just $4.99 a month, or $29.99 a year.
