In their own words

EA app

EA app is Electronic Arts’ game platform for Windows and Mac, replacing Origin on those systems. It lets users collect games, see what friends are playing, and find new EA releases. Linking an EA Account with supported platforms can import friends lists and help users play together. The app is required to play EA games on PC launched through Steam or Epic, and logging in requires an EA Account ID and password. It updates automatically at login unless an update launches while the app is already running. Windows requires a 64-bit PC with Windows 10 or 11; Mac requires macOS 10.15.8 or later. Other operating systems are not supported. The app has a free plan; EA Play costs $5.99 a month and EA Play Pro costs $16.99 a month. EA Play includes a game collection, select new-release trials of up to 10 hours, monthly rewards, and a 10% digital-purchase discount. Pro includes premium editions of select new games on day 1, a premium-edition game collection, and the same discount.

Gameforge Client

Gameforge Client is a Windows gaming platform that brings Gameforge games together in one place. The client presents a simple sequence: install it, discover games, and play. A Gameforge account can manage accounts for multiple games under one email address and password, and can automatically sign players in when a game launches. Its remember-password option avoids entering the password for every launch. Players can add and save new game accounts; to connect an existing game account, they sign in with its game credentials and confirm their email address. Another account can be added through a game's Library settings. A Gameforge account works with a game when that title appears in the Client's Library, and Gameforge says more games are planned for integration. Separate Gameforge accounts cannot currently be merged. The client also connects to Gameforge support, where users can contact support and view ticket history; registering an account simplifies ticket processing. Gameforge is a publisher and developer of online games, from browser titles to MMORPGs. The client is free.
