- Xbox One
- PC Origin
- PC Steam
- PC Epic Games
- Nintendo Switch

FC 27 officially launches on Friday, September 25, but you don’t have to wait long to purchase it. Pre-orders are available from July 15, 2026 (5pm UK time) until the day before the release date. When you pre-order FC 27, the disc will be dispatched on the release day, or you can start playing at midnight if you opt for the digital version.
The benefit of pre-ordering is that you pay the same price while gaining access to exclusive offers. However, if you don’t plan to play the game regularly, it might be more economical to buy it later, particularly during the holiday season when prices often drop.
