EA officially revealed EA Sports FC 27 on July 23, 2026, publishing the first trailer and opening pre-orders the same day. The game launches worldwide on Friday, September 25, 2026, with Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham as the cover stars. Full details and a live countdown are on our EA Sports FC 27 hub.
On timing: the two premium editions get in early. The Ultimate and Ultimate Plus editions include up to 7 days of early access, starting September 18 — a full week before the standard launch. The Standard Edition unlocks on September 25. EA hasn’t published exact per-timezone unlock times yet; our release-date page updates the moment it does.
There are three editions this year (US pricing from EA’s official pre-order page). The Standard Edition is $69.99 — the base game, unlocking on launch day. The Ultimate Edition is $99.99, adding the up-to-7-days early access plus FC Points and Ultimate Team content. New for FC 27 is the Ultimate Plus Edition at $149.99 — the priciest standalone edition EA has offered — which bundles up to 10,000 FC Points across five monthly drops, Premium Passes for Seasons 1–5 and a Hall of FUT Player Pick. Our editions guide breaks down which is worth it.
One catch on Ultimate Plus: it’s an early-bird exclusive. It’s only sold during the pre-order window from July 23 to August 31, 2026 — after that it’s gone. If you’re a heavy Ultimate Team player weighing it up, that August 31 cut-off is the date to note.
Pre-orders are open now across PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC (EA app, Steam, Epic) and Nintendo Switch / Switch 2. Buy on the store tied to the platform you play on. Regional store prices (IDR, THB, VND, TRY, BRL, SAR…) vary by country — our pre-order guide covers where and which edition to choose.
Also worth remembering: EA Sports FC is the official licensed product of the AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027 (24 national teams, 8 stadiums), and Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Japan, South Korea and Australia all qualified for that tournament.
