Early Access to Madden NFL 15 Has Arrived For EA Access Subscribers

[Steve_OS]

Early access to Madden NFL 15 has arrived for EA Access subscribers.

Exclusive to Xbox One users, EA Access subscribers get six hours of gameplay. So make sure you close out of the app when it's not in use. The timer starts when you start the game and pauses when you exit and close the app.

UPDATE: EA Access subscribers can download it, but can't actually play it. We will update when they get it working...

UPDATE #2: Just received this Twitter response from EA Access.

UPDATE #3: Everything works now, post your impressions in the new post.

Hey Steve, we're aware of an issue with the trial. Microsoft is working on a fix. We'll make sure everyone gets their full time.

This may be a dumb question but im going to ask. If I were to download this and then go to work, it would not open itself (therefore draining my six hours) once it completed the download would it?

3% but heres a question.... Does this download time count as time against the 6 hours since the EA Access application is open while its downloading?

Hey everyone, long time reader first post but just thought I'd share if you are like me and at work this morning/afternoon I was able to purchase it on my phone using the XBOX One smartglass app on windows phone. (assuming is same for smart glass across board and probably xbox online store.)


Just head into the store, sign in and go to games will have madden 15 and a button that says get it free with access and as long as your xbox is set to automatically download things and isn't in energy saving mode it'll be ready to go when you get home!


Happy Madden Season!

Just an edit not sure if it's cause I already started downloading mine but the xbox store on the web doesn't appear to let me start the download the app worked no problem though. Again could just be because my xbox is already downloading it (or so it says )
