The Epic Games Store has just expanded its offerings by adding the EA Play subscription service, giving players another platform to access Electronic Arts’ extensive game library. Known for its competitive pricing, major sales, and free game giveaways, the Epic Games Store continues to offer an alternative to Steam for gamers who enjoy playing on PC.
In the age of gaming subscription services, EA Play stands out as a prominent player. Originally launched in 2020 after rebranding from EA Access, EA Play provides subscribers with a wide range of benefits. These include unlimited access to a rotating selection of EA’s most popular games, exclusive in-game rewards, early access to new releases, and more.
As of now, the subscription is available on the Epic Games Store for a highly affordable entry price of just $0.99 USD for the first month, with subsequent months priced at $5.99 USD, and an annual subscription option for $39.99 USD. Through this service, subscribers can dive into well-known EA titles like Mass Effect, Mirror’s Edge, and Dragon Age: Inquisition, among many others.
In addition to full access to EA’s vast library, EA Play subscribers on the Epic Games Store will also enjoy a 10% discount on EA digital purchases, including games, expansion packs, and pre-orders. Furthermore, players gain access to early trials for some of EA’s latest titles, including EA Sports FC 25 Standard Edition, EA Sports WRC 24, Madden NFL 25, and F1 24. For those who decide to purchase the full version of a game after trying the trial, their progress will carry over seamlessly.
However, it’s important for players to note that subscribing via the Epic Games Store means their access to games, discounts, and rewards will be tied to this specific platform, rather than through other storefronts like Steam or Origin.
