FC 25 TRIAL
EA Play is a paid subscription program that includes the FC 25 trial early access and other offers.
FC 25 Trial
With EA Play (former EA Access and Origin Access), subscribers earn early access to all recent and upcoming EA titles, including FC, NHL, Madden, Need for Speed, and Battlefield series. The program gives access to Play First Trials, which are
In the case of the FC 25 trial, players are allowed to do everything they would do in the final game, including playing, trading, and buying FC Points, which can be a significant advantage over other players without early access. It is also possible to transfer FC Points from the previous edition.
With the FC 25 trial, players play the real game for a limited time before it’s available in stores. If they purchase FC 25 once it’s officially released, they can pick up right where they left off – their progress and stats carry over. Saved games and achievements/trophies earned during the trial will unlock once they purchase and log into the EA Servers with the final version of the game. Subscribers who don’t buy the game can play the FC 25 trial until the full game release date or until they have played for 10 hours, whichever comes sooner.
The only limitation of the FC 25 Trial is that it can be used for a maximum of 10 hours. It’s important to note that the trial timer will continue to count down even when the game runs in the background. To optimize the trial experience, we recommend the following:
- Quit the trial completely when you are not playing
Xbox: Home > Start on FC > Quit Game
PlayStation: Close application
PC: Close the window - Use the web/companion app to trade, open packs, manage your squad, and complete SBCs and objectives;
- Avoid starting the game while it is still downloading – you will have limited features and waste your time.
FC 25 Trial Release Date
By subscribing to the EA Play program, players gain the privilege of playing FC 25 seven days before the official launch. The trial becomes available in the stores simultaneously, so changing the store region in an attempt to play it earlier is unnecessary.
The FC 25 Trial is expected to begin at approximately midnight UK time on
Please note that pre-downloading is not an option for the trial. Players who initiate the download when it becomes available in the store will still need to wait for around one hour to start playing, depending on their internet connection speed.
