The latest update to the\u00a0Steam<\/strong> client has dropped, and with it comes some exciting features. Along with the usual bug fixes and new “Flick Stick” controls, Valve has added support for EA Play.<\/p>\n

EA Play\u00a0is the first subscription service<\/a> of its type on Steam<\/a>, boasting such features as in-game rewards for having the subscription and access to specific EA titles. Players get access to new titles for up to 10 hours of playtime. An EA account is required, though now players can\u00a0register with their Steam account.<\/p>\n

Underneath the fanfare of EA’s\u00a0rush to get its titles to launch through Steam<\/a>,\u00a0one neat new feature which was quietly added is “Jibb Smart’s Flick Stick.” This controller configuration, which\u00a0is available for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Steam controllers, can be found in the configuration sub-menu for any joystick or touchpad. This setting allows the player to point the joystick in the relative position they wish to look, though it does require\u00a0the controller’s gyro to take over for the Y-axis.<\/p>\n
