Play Madden NFL 15 early with EA Access — but for only 6 hours

Madden NFL 15 is bringing football action to consoles next week, but you can play a complete version of the game early if you are an EA Access member.

As part of its recently introduced subscription service, publisher Electronic Arts is enabling players to download a feature-complete version of its games five days before their official releases. With Madden due out Aug. 26, EA Access subscribers can start playing the gridiron simulator on Thursday. The only stipulation is that the trial will end after you play for six hours, but any progress you make will carry over if when you unlock the final release.
