EA's new PGA Tour game, Rory McIlory PGA Tour, is scheduled to launch on July 14. However, Xbox One owners can play the game starting today by way of Electronic Arts' membership program EA Access.

A membership costs $5/month or $30/year.

You can play the full game--not a slimmed down trial version--for a period of 10 hours. If you enjoyed what you played, you can buy the full game for a 10 percent discount, which comes to $54 instead of $60.

The game's cover star, 26-year-old Rory McIlroy, recently went down with a real-world injury that will prevent the current World No. 1 from defending his Open title next week at St. Andrews.

The ability to play EA games ahead of launch is just one of EA Access' perks. Others include a 10 percent discount on all EA digital content and access to a dozen free games.

Currently, EA Access is available only on Xbox One. Sony initially said EA Access did not offer a strong enough value for PlayStation 4 owners, though the company has since explained that the service could one day show up on PS4 if certain business requirements are met.
