There is no date announced yet for when players can begin transitioning their accounts over to the new EA platform. If you connect your EA account to platforms like steam, Xbox, and PlayStation, you can be recognizable across platforms and know what your friends are playing and where they're playing it.

One of the other features is what they are calling the "ultimate friends list". The new app will support automatic game downloads and background updates, as well as a number of other options. So what is the difference? EA says it is faster and lighter as a PC client, with a streamlined design that should make Discovery easier, as well as access to your library. This came after feedback on Origin–and who among us did not have some issues with it over the past decade–and they’re calling the new EA App “a faster, more reliable, and more streamlined gaming experience”. Are you confused yet? I certainly am.EA announced the app was just about ready in a new blog post, saying that after 10 years of Origin being the platform for EA games, that its time is coming to a close on PC. To access the EA Play library through your Game Pass subscription, you need a brand new launcher called EA Desktop. It turns out that yes, your Game Pass for PC (or Game Pass Ultimate) subscription does entitle you to the entire EA Play library (formerly Origin Access) but just not through the Xbox App where you find the rest of the Game Pass games, and not in Origin (the EA desktop app) either. Then, this week, the Xbox App on my PC updated, and things got even stranger. I was starting to feel like I was losing my mind. For more than a week, the Xbox App has made no mention at all of EA Play or the 60+ new games. The problem is, when I search for Star Wars: Squadrons, Dragon Age 2, or Mass Effect: Andromeda, nothing shows up.

On March 17, we reported that Game Pass was getting over 60 new games thanks to a deal between Microsoft and EA that brought the entire EA Play catalog to Game Pass. I know for a fact that EA Play came to Xbox Game Pass for PC this month.
