Xbox One Gamers Can Play Madden NFL 16 Early with EA Access
 

Xbox One gamers will once again have the opportunity to play Madden NFL 16 five days before the actual release date with a subscription to EA Access, confirmed by Microsoft marketing executive Aaron Greenberg on Twitter.

With Madden NFL 16 releasing on August 25th, EA Access subscribers should be able to download the game on August 20th.

As an Xbox One exclusive, EA Access gives subscribers ($4.99 a month/$29.99 a year) access to The Vault, which provides full digital downloadable games for EA SPORTS UFC, NHL 15, Battlefield 4, Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare, NBA LIVE 15, Madden NFL 25, Madden NFL 15, Need For Speed Rivals, FIFA 14, FIFA 15, and Peggle 2. EA Access subscribers also receive 10% off EA digital purchases and trial versions (typically 6 hours) of EA games before they are released.

With that said, EA Sports released another Madden NFL 16 screenshot on their Facebook page. It features New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski defended by Arizona Cardinals cornerback, Patrick Peterson.

Wish it was longer then 6 hours. Especially if I pre ordered via access

That screenshot looks better than any of the others that came out. Still lacking some pop but doesn't seem as washed out.

Maddens stills always look decent, it's when the game is in the motion that you see how bad it looks.

I'm playing 16 right now... Isn't Richard Sherman on the cover? Same old two step homie!

I also noticed the Patriots have the new logo on the jersey and helmet there. I was told tonight by Clint & @equipmentguru on Twitter, that they have also fixed the number size and spacing of the Pats uniforms since the screen was taken. I guess it was a mistake, but somehow I think they put Jimmy Garoppolo's face on Gronk's body there.

Speaking of uniforms, I hope they fix all the known uniform errors, as well as getting the new Browns' unis correct.

As for the Early access to the game; I have to say I am not impressed; it really isn't worth it and I see the access system as just another money making scheme to get kids to spend their hard earned money, or their parents' hard earned money to feed the billion dollar corps...But I digress..

EA Access is nothing but a great offer from EA....Do you even understand what it entails. Is not 30 a year to play Madden 5 days early.
