Yep, you heard me right... EA is planning to bring EA Access to Steam in Spring 2020.
EA's SVP Mike Blank, pledges to bring Jedi Fallen Order, EA Access to Valve's storefront... as he moves to reduce fragmentation.
I don't know how it's going to work out, but... clearly EA is eyeing the Steam audience it abandoned awhile back.
I don't want to sound like i'm taking shots, but... what other reason would they want to go back to Valve? Granted it's still their service, and it's not a bad price at all ($4.99/month or $29.99/annually) but I still don't know how that would work out (plus Valve has to be compensated).
The games will have to be on Valve Steam (which is why you see Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order for pre-order), and based on the past... I can't help but wonder how all this is going to work. Will all the games be accessible? Will it be the lamest platform to have EA Access on due to a limited library?
Who knows, but if they want to gain access to the Steam audience again... they should seriously come correct and also respect the fact that they need the gamers to make this work (not the other way around).
I'm not slamming them, but at the same time... money doesn't grow on trees and even if gamers play games... no one desires being played. Anyway... game on!
Pre-order STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order... Now!
