EA Sports FC 27 launches worldwide on Friday, September 25, 2026, and pre-orders are already live across all three editions.

Whether early access is the most enticing option, a stack of FC Points or just the base game, here’s exactly what each tier costs and what you get for pre-ordering.

For everything else on the game — release date, cover star and gameplay changes — you can see the latest news here.

EA Sports FC 27 Price

EA Sports

FC 27 comes in three editions: Standard, Ultimate and the limited-time Ultimate Plus, which is only available to pre-order until August 31, 2026.

In terms of pricing, it holds level with FC 26 in most regions, with the Standard Edition sitting at the now-familiar £69.99 / $69.99 mark.

Notably, the Standard and Ultimate covers both feature cover star Kylian Mbappé — and the Standard art is packed with hidden references, which we’ve broken down in our EA Sports FC 27 cover easter eggs guide.

EA Play subscribers and returning FC 26 players can save at least 10 per cent on the Ultimate and Ultimate Plus tiers.

EA Sports FC 27 Pre-Order Bonuses

EA Sports

Every edition includes the full game and all core modes — Career Mode, Clubs, Ultimate Team and the new open-world social hub, The Grounds. The difference is entirely in the bonus content, which scales up sharply the higher you go.

Crucially, the Ultimate Edition’s best pre-order reward is time-gated: pre-order before August 31 for the full package, and the 85+ OVR International ICON drops off after that date. Below is what each tier delivers:

Standard Edition (£69.99/$69.99/$89.99)

The entry point still carries a respectable pre-order haul, weighted towards Career Mode and The Grounds:

• 92+ OVR ICON Player Item for FC 26
• Three ICONs/Heroes in Manager Career
• 5-Star Coach in Manager Career
• 5-Star Youth Scout in Manager Career
• The Grounds Signature Sweatsuit
• Additional The Grounds content

Ultimate Edition (£99.99/$99.99/$129.99)

The Ultimate tier layers early access and FC Points on top of everything above — the sweet spot for Ultimate Team regulars who want a head start:

• 85+ OVR International ICON Player Item (pre-order by August 31)
• 93+ OVR ICON Player Pick for FC 26 Up to seven days early access (from September 18)
• Additional FC 27 Player Evo slot
• Season One Premium Pass
• 6,000 FC Points over three months
• Career and The Grounds content

Ultimate Plus Edition (£139.99/$149.99/$199.99)

The most expensive tier — and a limited-time buy that vanishes after August 31 — bundles the biggest FC Points reward and the exclusive Hall of FUT pick:

• Everything in the Ultimate Edition
• Hall of FUT Player Pick
• Seasons One to Five Premium Passes
• 10,000 FC Points over five months (up from 6,000)
• FC 26 Physical Evo (boosts a player’s physical attributes to 99)

The gap between Standard and Ultimate Plus is significant, so it’s worth weighing how much you’ll lean on Ultimate Team before committing to the top tier.

Tottenham Hotspur have received a potential blow in their bid to sign one of their top transfer targets, after Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Barcelona have opened talks for him.

After two demoralising Premier League campaigns that ended in successive 17th-placed finishes, expectations and excitement are building ahead of the 2026-27 season for Tottenham.

New manager Roberto De Zerbi steered the club to safety last term, and he is now working with club chiefs to ensure they have a squad that will be nowhere near the bottom three again in the upcoming campaign.

Spurs have already added half-a-dozen new faces to their squad before pre-season started, although the Italian has confirmed that he still wants to add more attacking players to his squad ahead of the summer window closing on September 1.

Romano: Barcelona Open Talks to Sign Junior Kroupi

In a brand-new update posted on his official YouTube channel on Monday afternoon, Romano issued an update on Bournemouth striker Eli Junior Kroupi, who is attracting interest from some of the biggest clubs in Europe.

Tottenham are said to be targeting a move for the young French forward even if they land top winger target Savinho from Manchester City, but now they have been joined in the race by Barcelona.

According to the Italian journalist, the Catalan giants have held discussions with both the player’s camp and the Cherries over a move.

He said: “One name to watch in the next weeks of transfer window is Junior Kroupi, the striker from Bournemouth.

“According to my information, Barcelona opened talks with people close to Kroupi and spoke also to Bournemouth about Kroupi as a possibility upfront. So Barcelona took some information and made some calls to understand the situation.

“He’s a player they appreciate. So for sure, the name of Kroupi is a name to keep under consideration for Barcelona. The problem is that this deal is also very complicated because Bournemouth don’t want to sell the player this summer. Bournemouth insist on keeping Kroupi at the club this summer, and so it’s not easy for Barcelona.”

Tottenham Move Into Pole Position to Sign £70m Star

Reports on Sunday claimed that Tottenham have now moved to the front of the queue to sign Savinho from City, with negotiations over a deal ‘well advanced’.

Serie A giants AC Milan are also in the race for the Brazil international after failing with an ambitious approach to sign his City teammate Phil Foden, who has since signed a new long-term contract to stay at the Etihad.

City are said to be open to letting Savinho leave the club this summer after rejecting Spurs’ advances 12 months ago, but they want to land their own targets first.

One recent report suggested that the north Londoners have made a £70m offer for the 22-year-old, as they look to land De Zerbi’s number one left-winger target.

It remains to be seen where Jadon Sancho will end up following his release from Manchester United this summer.

The 26-year-old is on the lookout for a new club, with his £73million “dream” move to United turning into something of a nightmare and his contract running down this summer.

Sancho had four impressive seasons in the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund from 2017 to 2021, leading United to splash out big money on his signature.

Things did not go to plan for the player who has been described as a “generational talent” in the past. He made 83 appearances for United across five seasons, and was sent out on loan to three different clubs – back to Dortmund, Chelsea and Aston Villa.

Sancho was a sensational talent as a teenager

No one could get a tune out of the forward. His former England U15 and U16 coach Dan Micciche said: “When he came to us as a 15-year-old, Jadon was sensational. And I don’t say that lightly.”

He played alongside Erling Haaland at Dortmund, with the Norwegian striker saying: “Me and Jacon understood each other very well, he’s a top player.”

He had a big falling out with former United boss Erik ten Hag and when he made the move to Stamford Bridge, Chelsea actually ended up paying United not to sign him, having reneged on a £25million obligation to sign him permanently.

Just five years ago the forward had the world at his feet and had his pick of clubs to move to. Now he is a free agent and it looks like he is scrabbling around for interest.

Sancho left to look elsewhere as transfer falls through

According to GIVEMESPORT sources, Qatari side Al Rayyan made an initial inquiry over signing the frontman three weeks ago. However, no talks have taken place since and Al Rayyan are not expected to follow up with any further talks.

Sancho is understood to be exploring all options, including other possibilities in both the Middle East and Europe.

Given his performances for Chelsea and Villa, it would appear unlikely that anyone in the Premier League would take a punt on the 26-year-old this summer, particularly given his wage demands are likely to be sky high too.
