Downloading games and early trials

To download a game or early trial, search for the one you want to play in the Xbox Store from your Xbox Series S or X and download it from there.

You can also find full games included with your membership by going to My Games & Apps > Full Library > EA Play. 

See what games are available with EA Play on ea.com.

How do early trials work?

Download early trials to access our newest games for a limited time before launch. To get the most out of the trials, make sure to download the games completely before playing.

You can play all of the trial straight through, or spread your gaming over several days. You can see how much time you have left in your trial, just make sure to quit the game or switch apps when you’re not playing. Time keeps counting down if you leave the game open and we can’t reset or add more time to early trials.

When your trial ends, buy the full game to keep playing. Your stats and progress will be waiting for you.

Games removed from The Play List

From time to time, we’ll remove games from The Play List to make room for newer ones.

Find the full list of games that have been removed from The Play List on ea.com.

How do I cancel?

1. Log in to your Microsoft account.
   
2. Navigate to Services & subscriptions.
3. Click Manage next to your EA Play membership.
4. Cancel your membership.

Things to note:

• If you cancel your membership, you’ll keep your game progress (as long as you don’t manually delete your save files) and all earned Achievements. However, you can’t continue playing the games you’ve downloaded unless you buy them or reactivate your membership. When you reactivate your membership or buy the games, you can pick up right where you left off the next time you play.
• Once you cancel your membership, you will keep your membership benefits until the end of your membership period.
• You can ask Xbox Support to cancel your membership if you want to stop EA Play right away, but you won’t be eligible for a refund of any unused time.
• If your membership expires, any purchases you made with your 10% member discount are yours to keep.

*Conditions, limitations, and exclusions apply. See EA Play Terms for details.
