The official Twitter account confirmed that Access' selling point of offering games a few days early would apply to Hardline, letting players try the full game for free a few days in advance.EA Access is Xbox One exclusive , so that gives Xbox owners with a subscription to EA's service a leg up on PC and PlayStation 4 players. However, the trial isn't unlimited, as EA has generally kept them to six hours even for much longer games like Dragon Age: Inquisition. Battlefield: Hardline is likely to be similarly limited. EA Access also tends to let players carry progress into the purchase of the full game.EA planned to offer Access across both of the new generation consoles, but Sony passed on the offer saying it didn't offer a good value . For those who don't get early access, Battlefield Hardline is coming on March 17.
