In the past month, publisher Electronic Arts has illustrated its emphasis to supporting PC gaming – no matter the platform. During its annual EA Play virtual presentation last month, the firm announced over a few dozen EA-published properties will be migrating from Origin and making their debut over to Steam.
But despite the recent support for the Valve-owned storefront, Electronic Arts does not plan to abandon its own PC launcher over on Origin. Instead, the company presents to further its involvement with keyboard & mouse players as more games will be coming to the vault. However, these new additions are coming to the pricier Origin Access Premier.
Rather than the base Origin subscription, the pricier model offers an extended library of titles outside of Electronic Arts’ repertoire and provided players with limitless playtime on upcoming, EA titles on the platform countering the 10-hour trials. Recently, Electronic Arts has decided to introduce three new games, but these come from Japanese publisher Sega.
Announcing that Sonic Mania, Two-Point Hospital, and Endless Legend are to arrive to the platform. Currently, the 2017 platformer starring Sega’s iconic blue hedgehog is available for Origin Access Premier subscribers to play. The remaining titles featured are said to be “coming soon” at a later date in the following weeks.
Despite the new agreement formed between both Sega and Electronic Arts, neither firm disclosed if this new relationship will expand beyond the initial announcement. If so, it would be welcomed to see some RGG Studio titles like Yakuza Kiwami or Yakuza Kiwami 2 since both are already available on Steam. The same can also be said for Catherine which shipped last January.
