EA Access is removing a game today for the first time

After pledging that it wouldn't remove any games from the EA Access library, Electronic Arts is now doing that.
As previously reported, FIFA 14 is exiting the library on October 18. FIFA 14 had been in the EA Access "Vault" of free games since the service launched in 2014.
FIFA 14 will be removed from the library sometime on Wednesday, October 18, so if you really want it, you'll need to act quickly.

I imagine the licensing might play a factor in this. Especially of the players.

Well...who really wants to play old sports games when newer ones are already on the platform.

Maybe EA has shut down the servers for 14?

In that case, they would have to pay for traffic (in case someone downloaded it) but wouldn't be able to make money thru FUT.

Makes sense to remove it

I mean, if you really want a three-year-old FIFA you can get it for around 2.99 used. Or are they upset at EA promising not to do something, because if so lol

Don't see too many people caring about this.

If they have the later years I don't consider this a true broken promise.

Typical EA.

#alldigitalfuture LOL

So glad SONY™ had the foresight NOT to allow this anti-consumer trash on the PS4™ PS4 PRO™ and PSVita™.

Genuinely feel very bad for all the Xbox One owners who, on top of everything else, now have games disappearing forever from their library to deal with.


Do you feel homesick now?

I usually prefer natural over fake but I'll take what I can get.
