How To Download Madden 22 EA Play Trial

For Madden 22’s early access trial you are going to need to subscribe to EA Play. Subscriptions can cost $4.99 a month or $29.99 for the year and occasionally there are free trials for EA Play, so keep an eye out for those.

Alternatively, you can subscribe for Play Pro, a more premium service for $14.99 a month or $99.99 for the year.

Once subscribed to EA play, sign in on your Xbox/ PlayStation, or PC and then go to the ‘Trails’ tab and select Madden 22.

On most platforms, you can probably see the download option for the trial on your main store page but make sure you’re downloading the trial and not the game if you have already pre-ordered a disc copy.

When subscribing to EA Play you can also take advantage of a 10% discount if you later decide to buy Madden 22.
