Battlefield Hardline Enters The EA Access Vault On Xbox One Next Month
Battlefield Hardline is a departure from the classic military stylings for the franchise, so you may not have given it a try. If you own an Xbox One and are an EA Access member, you’ll have a reason to give it a go next month.
The game’s listing in the EA Access hub on Xbox One identifies it as being slated for inclusion in “the vault.” This is the section of the app that includes games that are free to play with an active membership.
This was first flagged on Reddit yesterday, and we were able to confirm it ourselves this morning. For more on Battlefield Hardline, check out our review.
Our Take
EA Access offers a solid value at $5 per month, and that only increases as more games are added to the vault. I’ve not jumped in yet, but each time I see a game I haven’t played become available for free (with membership), I’m tempted.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
