Dragon Age: Inquisition Available On November 13 For EA Access Members
Xbox One owners that have opted into EA Access will be able to start their Dragon Age: Inquisition adventure a few days early. While everyone else is waiting until November 18th to play, you’ll be able to get a head start.
EA Access members can start playing on November 13, five days early. Your early play is limited to six hours, so you’ll have to save the all-nighters until the game is available to the public.
The trial is available to all members, even if they’ve not pre-ordered the game. Progress will carry over to the retail version.

Our Take
EA Access continues to be a smart idea that’s implemented fairly well. Given the ability to pre-order digital games via the consoles, it would be great if players that had done so were given unfettered access. For them, the six hour period isn’t so much a trial as a maddening time limit after committing to a purchase.
