EA Sports’ FIFA, the massively popular football game is set to receive its annual iteration – FIFA 19 – later in September. It’s boasting new UEFA licenses, including the Champions League, in addition to new gameplay features and kick-off modes – better tactical control and Survival Mode among them – that promise to up the ante both on and off the pitch. And it will also bring The Journey: Champions, the third and final chapter of its story-based mode that will let you play as three characters: Alex Hunter, his best friend and his step-sister. From release date to ratings, here’s everything you need to know about FIFA 19.

FIFA 19 release date

FIFA 19 is out Friday, September 28 on PC, PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Switch. EA’s gaming platform Origin and the Microsoft Store mention Thursday, September 27 as the release date for India, which suggests a global unlock time on PC and Xbox One.

If you want early access starting Thursday, September 20, you can subscribe to EA Access on Xbox One or Origin Access / Origin Access Premier on PC. With EA/Origin Access, you will get to play FIFA 19 for 10 hours. Origin Access Premier gives you unlimited game time.

You can also avail three-day early access – from Tuesday, September 25 – by buying one of the special editions, listed below.

FIFA 19 ratings

In the run-up to the release of the demo, EA Sports unveiled the top 100 players in FIFA 19. The likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Neymar are part of the top 10.

FIFA 19 editions

You can choose from three editions for FIFA 19: Standard, Champions, and Ultimate on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Only Standard and Champions editions are available on Nintendo Switch. As in previous years, FIFA 19 is not available on disc for PC.

Both Champions and Ultimate grant you three-day early access across all platforms. In terms of content, the only difference is the slate of bonus items for Ultimate Team.

FIFA 19 Mobile

EA Sports' FIFA is a completely different ball game on mobile, as anyone who's ever played it would know. It's why it doesn't even carry the year mention and is simply called FIFA Mobile. There have been no announcements on when a 2019 update is expected. The last update was during the 2018 World Cup, which added a new sheen just as on other platforms.

If you are looking for FIFA action on-the-go, your only options are the Switch version or (non-football action via) the FIFA Ultimate Team Companion app on Android and iOS.
