Skate 3 added to EA Access Vault
The latest game to make it to the EA Access Vault on Xbox One is Skate 3, which first became backwards compatible for the system in November. It's a consolation prize for fans of the series given that there is no indication Electronic Arts plans to develop a fourth. Skate 3 originally came out in 2010 and was actually the lowest rated edition of the franchise finishing with an 80 on Metacritic. Some of the complaints related to the proximity of releases as the trio of Skate games were rel...

EA Sports UFC 2 now included in the EA Access Vault
The latest sports game to arrive in the EA Access Vault on Xbox One is EA Sports UFC 2. Originally released back in March, EA UFC 2 was much better received than the first effort with the series but has struggled to find an audience beyond the most hardcore of MMA fans. The revenue-generating version of Ultimate Team didn't prove especially compelling either which is something publishers have now come to depend upon. UFC 3 is expected in 2018 and some idea of feature plans have already leake...

Upcoming EA Access Vault games include EA Sports UFC 2
The appealing nature of the EA Access subscription service tends to fluctuate over the course of a given year, being largely dependent upon times where the primary draw is the 10 hour trials for games about to release or the points at which the addition of those that have been out for a while are made to the Vault. Besides Battlefield 1 there are no more trials to come this year, however several additions to the Vault are planned. The next big sports game to make it to the service will...

SSX now included in the EA Access Vault
The latest addition to the EA Access Vault on Xbox One is a game that released on the last generation of consoles. While the 2012 reboot of the SSX series struggled with sales it was generally well-received and was supported admirably by the publisher post-release. Thanks to backwards compatibility the game can now be played on Xbox One and for essentially free to those with an active EA Access subscription. SSX joins the likes of Madden NFL 16, FIFA 16, NHL 16, NBA Live 16, and Rory McIl...

NBA Live 16 added to the EA Access Vault
With today's addition of NBA Live 16 to the EA Access Vault all the EA Sports games from 2015 are now included with the subscription service. While there won't be another NBA Live until maybe sometime next year - whether that even materializes will remain to be seen - those on Xbox One can now play Live 16 in unlimited fashion as long as a subscription is active. This is the fifth and final EA Sports game from 2015 to reach the Vault in EA Access. It follows Madden NFL 16 which was add...
