EA Play is awful so I canceled my subscription to Game Pass

If you just want to play Dead Space, then you can purchase it or subscribe to EA Play, either from Steam or EA themselves.

If his subscription is Xbox Live Gold, then cancelling the subscription will not affect Fortnite, as he will still be able to play that game online.

If however he has Game Pass or EA Play, then cancelling the subscription will stop him being able to play the games that are included in the subscription.

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Tadis, you don't need to cancel your EA PLay, the Game Pass Ultimate subscription already has EA play, if you already have EA in your Microsoft account, you can purchase the Game Pass Ultimate subscription from the same account, which will keep your progress and data you already have from EA.

You say that you cancelled your subscription to Ultimate a few days ago, did you subscribe to Game Pass Core (sorta used to be Gold) after cancelling Ultimate? When you cancel Ultimate, it cancels all of it. Game Pass, EA Play, Online Multiplayer,...all of it. Once cancelled, you have no subscription at all and need to resubscribe to whichever level you want.

Please visit https://account.microsoft.com/services to cancel your subscription. You will be prompted to either cancel the subscription immediately and if you are eligible for a refund it can be done through there as well or you can also turn off the recurring billing.

Kindly keep in mind that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate has Xbox Game pass for console and PC, Xbox Live Gold and EA play subscription. So you if you are to cancel this it will remove all the subscriptions it comes with as well. Hope this helps!
