Play a week early with this trick
The highly anticipated EA SPORTS FC 24 is just around the corner, and early access will begin this week. However, the opportunity for early access is typically only available to those who purchase the pricier Ultimate Edition. But fear not, there is a way for players to gain early access without the hefty price tag.
The budget-friendly alternative
While EA Sports FC 24 is set to officially launch on September 29, 2023, players can actually get their hands on it a whole week earlier, starting from September 22, 2023. How? There's a time-limited free trial that coincides with the early access period.
What's included in the free trial?
During the trial, players will have access to the entire game for 10 hours. And the best part? If you decide to purchase the full game afterwards, your save data from the trial will be transferred over. However, in order to participate in the free trial, you must be a subscriber to EA Play.
Unlock exclusive benefits with EA Play
Becoming an EA Play subscriber not only allows you to gain access to the free trial, but it also grants you a range of other benefits related to EA FC. Subscribers can unlock monthly Draft Ultimate Team Tokens, seasonal club rewards, Volta apparel, and credits. Additionally, you'll receive a 10% discount on in-game currency purchases, which could help offset the £3.99 subscription fee.
Start building your team now
Even if you don't have access to the free trial, you can still kick-start your EA FC journey by downloading the EA FC web and companion app. While you won't be able to play matches without the trial or full game, you can begin building your team and preparing for the launch.
EA Play Pro: More goodies for the serious gamer
If you're truly dedicated to EA Sports FC 24, you may want to consider the more premium version of the subscription service, EA Play Pro. This upgraded option comes with a host of additional perks, including early access and exclusive items such as the Nike Ultimate Team campaign player item on loan, the Nike x EA SPORTS FC Ultimate Team uniform, and more. It's certainly a pricier option, but for the avid fan, it may be worth it.
Mark your calendars for the ultimate football experience
Don't forget, EA SPORTS FC 24 officially launches on September 29, 2023. So whether you choose to gain early access through the free trial or opt for the Ultimate Edition with its added bonuses, get ready for an immersive and exciting football experience like never before.
