EA introduced Origin Access a little over a year ago. Aimed at PC gamers, the service was designed to be similar to the EA Access subscription service for Xbox One gamers which started in July 2014. However there was a notable (yearly) price difference between Origin Access and EA Access which caused more than a little consternation among the PC favouring HEXUS readers.
Now EA has introduced a yearly fee for Origin Access which brings the service charges to par with the Xbox One equivalent. If you go to the Origin Access page in the UK you will notice that subscriptions to the game library cost the same ?3.99 per month, but there is now an option to subscribe for a year for ?19.99. According to a report over at VentureBeat, U.S. residents benefit from similar cuts: Origin Access is now $4.99 per month, or $30 for a full year stateside.
