Do I Need to Be Connected to the Internet to Play Games With My Origin Access Membership?
For Play First Trials, you'll need an Internet connection. You can play some Vault games offline, but you'll need to periodically reconnect to Origin to verify that you're still a member.
If you cancel your membership prior to your next monthly or annual billing date, you won't be charged for the following month or year. You'll be able to continue to play Vault games, use your discount and jump into any available Play First Trials until your membership expires.
Yep! You’ll be able to play select games from other publishers with your Origin Access membership – and more are added over time, so your Origin Access library will keep on growing.
As a member of Origin Access, you'll score an automatic 10% discount on purchases from Origin.com, including new releases and pre-orders. Ditto for expansions, game packs, points, you name it. Please note: to receive the discount, the purchase must be made via Origin.
Short answer: different countries have different rules about what games can be sold or made available. The result: what you see in The Vault may vary slightly by locale.
