The 10-hour EA PLAY trial for EA Sports FC 25 will be released at the same time as the Ultimate Edition on September 20.

This trial is the full version of the game, and any progress made during the trial will carry over to the full game. Once the 10 hours have expired, players can upgrade to the Ultimate Edition of the game and continue the early access period, or they can wait for the full release of the standard version of the game.

The standard EA Play tier is $5.99 / £5.99, with the annual fee costing $39.99 / £35.99.

EA Play is also included as part of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, meaning subscribers to the Xbox service should also get access to EA FC 25 early.
