When Microsoft added 20 Bethesda games to Game Pass last month, the entire collection was just added to the app library like any other game. I can play Battlefront 2 without needing to load into another app, the whole EA Play library is integrated into the Xbox App.

In this new app, you need to link your Microsoft account to your EA account before you can access any of the games.
