Xbox Game Pass on PC and consoles will include access to EA Play at no additional cost

Microsoft subscribers will be able to play a selection of already released EA games, 10-hour trials of its new releases, and receive exclusive rewards and content.

The EA Play subscription service, formerly known as EA Access, will be included with Xbox Game Pass on PC and its Ultimate version on consoles. Access will open on the eve of the Christmas holidays – apparently from November 10, when the next-gen consoles Xbox Series S and Series X are released.

Players using Xbox Game Pass will not have to pay extra for EA Play, which costs $5 monthly. Instead, users will only pay for Xbox Game Pass – the Ultimate version costs $15 per month.

EA Play content with Xbox Game Pass will be available on Xbox One, Windows 10, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S.

EA Play also became available on Steam in late August
