Paid Subscription Would Offer Early Downloads, Free DLC, For EA Sports Titles

An online survey indicates that EA Sports has plans to offer a paid subscription that, among other features, would deliver some paid downloadable content for free and make full versions of upcoming games available for download before their release date.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); H25 }); “Discounts on all downloadable content for participating EA Sports console-based titles,” was the first bullet point mentioned, of sure interest given how much of it the sports publisher pushes in titles like FIFA, NHL, Madden, NCAA Football and Tiger Woods PGA Tour (SSX was also mentioned, and specifically cited as “SSX: Deadly Descents,” meaning this survey went out before that title’s name change at the beginning of April.) https://kotaku.com/all-hope-may-not-be-lost-for-the-new-ssx-5789663 Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12: The Masters, offers several additional courses as paid DLC, all available in a $50 package. It and other current EA Sports titles also offer career and franchise mode boosts and other optional content, for a charge. The bigger draw may be, for devotees of certain series, the ability to get the game over the PlayStation Network or Xbox Live before it streets. Indeed, this would be indicative of a push toward total digital distribution, a path EA Sports president Peter Moore has said is definitely the future for publishers. Finally, “Ability to transfer paid content from your current participating titles to future title versions,” would also be worth it for many subscribers. That $50 package of courses in Tiger Woods 12 is, you guessed it, playable only in Tiger Woods 12 (that we know for now.) Transferring paid DLC such as golf courses to future titles would also be a subscription perk. It may also hint at Moore’s earlier comments of greater portability of one’s experience, achievements and career progression across editions of the same series. Asked to comment on the survey, EA Sports spokesman Rob Semsey said at this time the publisher has no announcements.
