We get the very first addition to the EA Access Vault with Need for Speed Rivals, which joins Battlefield 4, FIFA 14, Peggle 2, and Madden NFL 25 as one of the games you can download and play for free as a member.
Along with the free games come early and exclusive demos of upcoming EA titles, with two big ones coming in September. NHL 15 and FIFA 15 will both have EA Access exclusive trials available with every member receiving six free in-game hours.
