Six Free Hours of Madden for Xbox One Owners

[DustinT]

Looks like EA Sports is in the holiday spirit. The company is giving a free six-hour trial to those who might be on the fence of making a purchase. Plus, plenty of gamers opened up a new console this Christmas which will allow EA to build its customer base.

EA Sports Press Release - Lots of football fans will unwrap Xbox One this holiday season. But Christmas morning is just getting started from there. Beginning Christmas day, December 25, fans will be able to experience a six-hour trial of Madden NFL 15 on Xbox One.* Fans can find the trial on the Xbox One dashboard, or in the Microsoft Store. The Madden NFL 15 Christmas Day trial is a full game version with access to popular game modes including Connected Franchise Mode (CFM) and Madden Ultimate Team (MUT). For those interested in purchasing Madden NFL 15 after participating in the trial, all progress gained during the trial period across all game modes will carry over, including those unlocked in CFM & MUT. The trial is expected to live between 5 a.m. and 9 a.m., UTC. The trial period runs from December 25 to January 1, 2015.

Good idea from EA. Wish it was possible on PS4.

How do you get the trail?

Good PR but that's about it. With this Sunday being Week 17, and the trial starting Christmas Day, anyone who was going to get the game either had it already or got it Christmas morning. If you don't have it already, it's probably worth waiting until the spring/summer when it's finally free with that EA subscription service.

Don't worry about missing the opportunity. The game isn't really worth the time. Madden is a very poor and mostly boring game of football. I truely believe that the game needs a complete reset, as it fails on so many levels.
