Did anyone buy this EA Access yet for the PS4 or Xbox One? Just wondering if I should get it for my son since he plays NHL and Madden every year on the Xbox One. If so, I am trying to see if I purchase it, if he can use it on his console and I can use it on mine, say like a family purchase. I have not found any information relating to the EA access for the family yet.

I bought it on my ps4, but only have 1, so no clue if it can be used across it.

Here is what a google search found for me:
The Play First Trials can only be played by the main account, However if you're talking about the Vault games, these can be shared between accounts just like any owned games. Make sure that the account that has the sub is logged in or has that console as its home account and you should be good.

So it sounds like it works like any other gamesharing.

I have it and just recently bought a 2nd XBox for the house.

And yes, you can use one EA Access account on both.

Appreciate it Jerry, going to have to figure out the home console thing, because the last time I did that it messed up my son's account (he could not play online, etc.), so I will figure something out.

Appreciate it Shel, going to purchase this for the Xbox Ones in the house, especially for my son to play his NHL and Madden games.
