Subscription gaming services are on the rise. PlayStation Now, despite some difficulties, is getting back into the grove of things. Now EA has joined the market with its new service, EA Access. Gamers who have Xbox Live Gold will be able to try out the service, free of cost, next week on Xbox One.
The service normally costs $4.99 a month, or $29.99 for the year. To get started, Xbox One owners must download the EA Access hub on their console. From there, they wil gain access to games like Battlefield Hardline, FIFA 15, and Dragon Age: Inquisition.
The service will also allow gamers to gain access to games before they are released in the form of betas and demos. If service drops for a month due to a lack of payment, gamers will also be able to pick up their games from where they left off as soon as they choose to continue payment with EA.
