Your internet pretty much has to be really great for it to work (or you have to be like me and play pretty much only JRPGs or vns) because it lags CONSTANTLY. Now, the controls CAN be moved around the screen, which helps slightly, but doesn’t change the fact that the key mapping is messed up. I’ve run into WAY to many where their virtual controller has the wrong key mapping for the game, yet there’s no options in their settings (and none for the game being played) to change it to the correct setup. The real problems come when you try to play games with this. You can change this in the settings (the icon with the touchpad/mouse buttons there’s a couple different options in there) It keeps defaulting to a drag and click method, which isn’t terrible, but also isn’t really that intuitive with a touch interface. The list may differ on other platforms.When it does work. This is the list of games available on the Xbox version of EA Play. This costs £10.99 / $14.99 / €14.99 per month and, for that, you also get access to more than 300 Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and original Xbox games, 200 games for PC, Xbox Live Gold (required for online play on an Xbox machine), and Microsoft's cloud gaming platform.

However, the most cost-effective solution might be to subscribe to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. It is exactly the same price for standalone EA Play membership on an Xbox console as it is on PlayStation - £3.99 / $4.99 / €3.99 per month or £19.99 / $29.99 / €24.99 for 12 months. EA Play on Xbox One / Xbox Series X / Xbox Series S It's a simple proposition and can be purchased through the PS4 or PS5 itself - via a dedicated EA Play app. It works slightly differently depending on the platform.

Paying for an entire year's membership works out a lot cheaper - around 50 per cent cheaper, in fact - but you might prefer a smaller monthly payment. You can pay for EA Play either monthly or annually.
