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

12:23 PM - August 21, 2014 by 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.

I'm going to reinstall. Hopefully that works.

# 86 vagrantwade @ 08/21/14 01:53 PM

I've downloaded, uninstalled, and downloaded a second time. It still isn't working for me.

# 87 jm2054 @ 08/21/14 01:53 PM

Mine is saying click to install but when I do it says 100% Installed then goes back to install

# 88 Instant C1a55ic @ 08/21/14 01:55 PM

Its a problem with the license. I am contacting MS to confirm the license being transferred to my console.

I just bought 1 month of EA Access for $5 and then pre-ordered the game for $54 (-$6 with the access discount) so basically I got a dollar knocked off the price that I would have spent anyways at launch and the 6 hours of early game-time for free..would recommend to anyone who is gonna buy the game for $60 at launch, but doesn't have access or want it for more than playing Madden early.

Same problem here...

I am in the Xbox Preview program ... I wonder if those who got it to work are not in the Preview program. Something to consider. Would be great if EA screwed this up and ended up giving us unlimited play once it gets fixed.

It 1 on the east and the game is not playable EA said 12 right so maybe it it's 12 in the west and not the east that we can start to play the game

Maybe they had retail copies and are now streaming to avoid legal issues with streaming retail before Early Access.

I do like the idea of even a few more hours of gameplay, perhaps as long as it takes to correct being added to the 6.

That 12pst time is in the description for the full retail version not the trial.

# 99 Gorilla Glass @ 08/21/14 02:11 PM

I'm having the same issue. The game seems to be 100% downloaded but won't execute.

# 100 kingkid1313 @ 08/21/14 02:11 PM

Did any of your guys whom are having problems downloaded the game early before today's releases?
