EA FC 24 is set to launch worldwide on September 29, 2023, but players can get early access through pre-ordering the Ultimate Edition or subscribing to EA Play. The Ultimate Edition grants full game access from September 22, a week earlier than standard release, while EA Play subscribers can enjoy a 10-hour trial starting the same day.
EA Play costs £3.99 per month or £19.99 annually, offering a 10% discount on all EA digital purchases and monthly Ultimate Team Draft tokens, seasonal Club rewards, and Volta items. Progress from the trial carries over if players decide to buy the full game later.
For those seeking unlimited early access, EA Play Pro at £14.99 per month provides the full Ultimate Edition, including all bonuses from the standard EA Play subscription. However, the Ultimate Edition pre-order remains a cheaper option for unlimited early access without a recurring subscription.
Players are advised to manually quit the game after each session to avoid wasting trial time, as the game may continue running in the background. The early access period runs from September 22 to the official release on September 29.
