EA Sports FC 25 Release Date and Details Leaked

EA Sports FC 25 is reportedly set for release on September 27, marking the second installment under the EA Sports FC brand. The game will launch in at least two editions: Standard and Ultimate.

Background and Changes

Last year, EA Sports rebranded its football simulation series from FIFA to EA Sports FC after ending its licensing deal with FIFA, the international governing body of soccer. The first game under this new label, FC 24, introduced new women's leagues like the Frauen-Bundesliga and Liga F. This year, fans can expect the usual updates, including new squads and kits, with the release of EA Sports FC 25.

Platforms and Editions

According to a report by Dealabs, EA Sports FC 25 will be available on multiple platforms, including last-gen consoles like PS4 and potentially Xbox One. Insider PlayStation Game Size confirmed the PS4 version, and the game is expected to be released in Standard and Ultimate editions. The leaked prices for the PC versions are $69.99 for the Standard Edition and $99.99 for the Ultimate Edition.

Announcement and Early Access

PlayStation Game Size recently revealed the FC 25 logo on their backup Twitter account, leading to speculation that an official announcement is imminent. Dealabs predicts that EA will announce FC 25 "within 10 days." The Ultimate Edition will offer early access starting on September 20, giving players a week’s head start. EA Play subscribers will also have the opportunity to play a 10-hour trial during the early access period.

Looking Ahead

While FC 24 didn’t achieve the same sales success as FIFA 23, it was EA's first game under the new branding. The developers are optimistic about the future and aim to bounce back with FC 25. With new information expected soon, fans should stay tuned for an official announcement in the coming weeks.
