In celebration of its 10-year anniversary, EA Play is offering a significant discount for new subscribers. Starting today, gamers can access a vast library of Electronic Arts games for just $0.99 for the first month. This special offer is available until August 15, providing an excellent opportunity to explore EA's extensive collection of titles at a fraction of the usual cost.
The Evolution of EA Play
Launched in 2014, EA Play was one of the pioneering gaming subscription services, offering players access to a selection of EA games for a flat monthly fee. Over the years, it has grown to include a diverse range of titles from popular franchises such as Star Wars and Mass Effect.
Anniversary Discount Details
Typically, the base subscription tier for EA Play costs $5.99 per month, having been marked up from its original price of $4.99. However, for this month only, new subscribers can enjoy the service for just $0.99. This anniversary discount allows players to dive into EA's iconic games and even gain early access to new releases with a 10-hour time restriction.
Subscription Options and Benefits
After the first month, the subscription will revert to the regular price of $5.99 per month unless canceled before the billing date. For those seeking additional perks, EA Play Pro offers a more premium experience at $16.99 per month or $119.99 per year. This tier includes early access to premium editions of new EA titles without time constraints and unlimited access to a broader library of games.
Subscription Tiers:
- EA Play: $5.99/month or $39.99/year (Currently $0.99 for the first month)
- EA Play Pro: $16.99/month or $119.99/year
Platform-Specific Details
For Xbox players, EA Play is already included in a monthly Game Pass subscription, likely making them ineligible for the $0.99 discount. Conversely, PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium subscribers may find this deal particularly appealing, as their current service only includes a membership to Ubisoft Plus, which offers fewer perks and is more costly than EA Play Pro.
