FC 25 DUAL ENTITLEMENT

FC 25 Dual Entitlement is a program that lets you upgrade for free from the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions.

Free FC 25 Upgrade

For the fifth consecutive year, EA SPORTS provides distinct experiences tailored for both current and next-generation platforms. Innovations leveraged by the power of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X are exclusively available on the newest consoles.

In collaboration with Sony and Microsoft, EA SPORTS offers Dual Entitlement, allowing players who purchase either an Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5 to upgrade their copy of FC 25 from prior generation Xbox One or PlayStation 4 platforms at no additional cost. This way, players won’t need to purchase Football Club twice.

The Dual Entitlement program works with pre-orders of any edition. Those who purchase the Standard Edition can take advantage of this offer.

How to get Dual Entitlement

Purchase the FC 25 Standard or Ultimate Edition from your console’s store (there is a unique version for both generations);
Go to your PlayStation 4 or Xbox One library, search by ‘FC 25’ and install it;
Go to your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S library, search by ‘FC 25’ and install it.

Progress

All progress you make or content you acquire within FC 25 Ultimate Team (including players, items, coins, FC Points, match record, and leaderboard placement), will transfer from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 and back, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X|S and back.
