If you’re yet unsure about buying EA FC 25 this year, having EA Play will allow you to test out the contents without having to pay the full price.
The trial, limited to a gameplay of 10 hours, is available for all players on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. Interestingly, the benefits of the trial start earlier than the full launch. In fact, you can start playing from the early access launch with the trial. Let’s find out how to download the trial version on your preferred platform.
How to play EA FC 25 trial on consoles
Early access begins at midnight local time on consoles. You can download the trial only after early access goes live. While you can pre-download the Ultimate Edition, the same can’t be said about the trial. Make sure you either have an EA Play subscription on PlayStation or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on your Xbox.
- On the PlayStation store, go to EA FC 25‘s store page.
- You’ll have the option to download the ‘Game Trial,’ along with the ability to select an available edition for full purchase.
- On your Xbox store, search for the game. The first search result will require you to choose an edition.
- Click on it to go to the game’s store page, but don’t choose an edition. Instead, select ‘Game Trial,’ and the download will begin.
Sometimes, the trial version might not show up on the store page. If that’s the case, go to Subscriptions from inside the Store and then EA Play. The trial should be available in this section (but do note that this is going to be the case only if the method mentioned above doesn’t work).
How to play EA FC 25 trial on PC
The early access launch on PC is slightly different. But you can enjoy the trial by having an EA Play membership either via Xbox Game Pass PC, or Steam. To download the trial, make sure that you’ve downloaded and logged into the EA app.
- On the EA app, search for EA FC 25.
- Go to the game’s store page, and it will automatically allow you to pre-download the trial.
Do note that early access on PC has different timings, so don’t be alarmed if you can’t play at your midnight local time.
