EA has made Star Wars Jedi: Survivor part of the EA Play subscription in some PlayStation regions.
IGN has confirmed Respawn’s action adventure is now part of EA Play on PlayStation in the UK. EA has yet to made an announcement, but the move comes ahead of an expected price hike for the subscription service.
Earlier in April it emerged that EA Play would get a price increase starting May 10. EA plans to increase the standard tier for EA Play from $4.99 to $5.99 per month, or for those that prefer to pay for a year in advance, the price will increase from $29.99 to $39.99. In contrast, the Pro tier of EA Play will increase from a monthly fee of $14.99 to $16.99 or $119.99 annually (a $20 increase).
The inclusion of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor in EA Play would soften the blow of a price rise. Presumably it will also be available as part of an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, which includes EA Play, although the Microsoft Store is yet to show it.
IGN’s Star Wars Jedi: Survivor review returned a 9/10. We said: “If Respawn makes a third game like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and Fallen Order, it’ll complete the best Star Wars trilogy in 30 years, hands down.”
