Electronic Arts is launching a new program that lets gamers play a title for free for a set time period, starting with Respawn’s widely acclaimed shooter Titanfall. The massive game publisher’s program is dubbed Origin Game Time. Users of the company’s Origin game service will be allowed to play the full versions of select titles for free for as long as there’s time on their Game Time clock. The Origin Game Time clock begins when a user starts the game for the first time and counts down from there. Titanfall will be available to play for 48 hours. EA’s announcement follows the launch of Steam’s annual summer sale.
