Electronic Arts and Criterion Games confirm that the newly announced Need for Speed Unbound racing game will have a free trial available for EA Play and certain Xbox Game Pass subscribers. Need for Speed Unbound is planned to launch on December 2 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, the latest release in the ever-popular Need for Speed franchise. As an Electronic Arts-published game, its release will come with all the benefits any other Electronic Arts game would include.

One of the main benefits of subscribing to EA Play, Electronic Arts' house subscription service, is early access to all the publisher's biggest releases. A subscription costs $4.99 a month and players receive up to 10 hours of access to new games days before they fully launch. Alternatively, the EA Play Pro subscription costs $14.99 and grants unlimited access to games leading up to launch. For fans of Madden, FIFA, and Need for Speed, it's a great opportunity to get ahead of the competition.
