FC 27 Editions and Pre‑order Bonuses
The game is offered in three versions: Standard, Ultimate and Ultimate Plus. The Standard edition costs $69.99 (£69.99) and includes a set of pre‑order bonuses if you order by 24 September 2026. Those bonuses add a full copy of the game, career challenges, three ICON or Hero players for Career Mode, a 5‑star coach and youth scout, a signature sweatsuit for The Grounds, a Tier 3 AMP inspired by Kylian Mbappé, two AXP multipliers for ten matches each, and a 92+ overall Icon player item for Ultimate Team in FC 26 (not available on the Switch or Switch 2 versions). The Grounds mode is exclusive to PS5, Xbox Series, PC and Switch 2, so the bonuses apply only on those platforms.
Ultimate edition, priced at $99.99 (£99.99), adds seven days of early access, the Premium Pass for season 1, 6,000 FC points distributed in three monthly drops, a pre‑season Career boost, a 5‑star senior scout, five extra manager live‑challenge slots, a 99 Dribbling Evolution in Ultimate Team, a 93+ overall Icon player pick, an 85+ International Icon item for Ultimate Team in FC 26, and an additional Evolution slot for Ultimate Team in FC 26. If you pre‑order by 31 August 2026 you receive all of these; ordering after 24 September 2026 still gives the 93+ Icon but drops the International Icon and the extra Evolution slot.
Ultimate Plus, costing $149.99 (£139.99), builds on the Ultimate package by adding two more FC 26 Evolutions, raising the total FC points to 10,000, providing Hall of FUT and an 85+ International Icon player item, and granting Premium Passes for seasons 1‑5 instead of just season 1. The extra content essentially bridges the price gap between Ultimate and Plus.
Key Dates for FC 27
FC 27 launches on Friday, 25 September 2026. Pre‑order customers who choose Ultimate or Ultimate Plus can start playing a week earlier, on 18 September 2026. Once the game is live, Ultimate Team promotions begin almost immediately, with the first Team of the Week expected to be announced on either 16 or 23 September at 10 am PT / 6 pm GMT, and then weekly thereafter. The inaugural “Destined for Glory” fan‑voted event will go live on the launch day, and subsequent promos follow a roughly two‑week cycle, with two drops per cycle. Major events such as Team of the Year and Team of the Season will break the regular schedule.
