EA FC 25 release dates announced for Early Access and Standard Edition

Feel your bones aching and your fingertips tingling? That's what it feels like when EA FC 25 is about to launch. After the traditional reveal of the game's top-rated players and a little hands-on experience, it's finally time for the real thing.

Players who pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition of the game, as well as EA Play or EA Play Pro subscribers, will be able to get into the game a little earlier than those with the Standard Edition, so some may have to wait longer than others to feel the digital green beneath their feet again.
