Gamers rush to get brand new EA Sports FC 24 for only 79p – but there’s a catch

GAMERS are rushing to get their hands on the brand new FC24 from EA Sports for just 79p.

It really is that cheap - but obviously, not without a catch.

While it's true you can play the game for under a quid, you only get 10 hours to do so as the offer forms part of a cheap trial.

Gamers subscribing to EA Play can do so for only 79p for the first month, instead of the standard £3.99 monthly membership.

EA Play is the rebrand for EA Access and Origin Access.

It gives gamers 10 per cent off all games, season passes, points packs and DLC - as well as the coveted chance to try out new-release games before launch.

While 10 hours doesn't sound like a lot, given how much time gamers bank while playing, it can last.

The time limit doesn't begin from the moment the game is played.

But instead, the total time played.

It may be possible to eek the trial out until FC 24's release date on 29 September.
