EA Sports launches Season Ticket program

New paid program provides access to sports titles three days early, discounted DLC

Posted on
Electronic Arts has announced today the launch of EA SPORTS Season Ticket, an new program that provides premium benefits for five participating sports titles.

With an annual fee of $24.99 or 2000 Microsoft Points, subscribers will receive four program benefits: access to play all participating games via a digital download three days before retail launch; a 20-percent discount on downloadable game content; free premium web content; and membership recognition.

EA SPORTS Season Ticket is an exciting program for our core fans – it lets our biggest fans play earlier, play more and play better than anyone else,” said Peter Moore, President, EA SPORTS. “EA SPORTS Season Ticket is an important step in our vision for transforming how deeply fans connect with the sports games they love through digital products and services. We’re excited to continue evolving EA SPORTS Season Ticket as we listen to what consumers want most in their gaming experiences.”

With a paid subscription to EA SPORTS Season Ticket, fans will receive the following benefits:
Early Full-Game Digital Access - Three days before a game’s scheduled release, fans will be able to download and play the full version of titles on Xbox 360 and PS3. The digitally downloaded game will time out when the game is available at retail and consumers have the option to purchase the same full game on disc at retail. EA SPORTS Season Ticket subscribers can transfer all achievements earned during the three-day download period to the purchased disc.
Discounted Downloadable Content - Subscribers will get a 20-percent discount on all available downloadable content for participating EA SPORTS titles. Downloadable content includes such items as Ultimate Team packs, accelerator packs and gear upgrades.
Free Premium Web Content - All participating titles will feature premium web content that will be free to EA SPORTS Season Ticket members beginning with the premium Creation Center packs for FIFA Soccer 12.
Membership Recognition - Subscribers are easily identifiable with an exclusive membership recognition badge displayed both in-game and on their EASPORTS.com profile.

EA SPORTS Season Ticket is available for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 beginning today. Fans can subscribe today through the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation Store for the PlayStation 3, and benefits begin with this month’s launch of Madden NFL 12. Moving forward, participating franchises include Madden NFL Football, NHL hockey, FIFA Soccer, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR golf and NCAA Football.
