With FIFA 19 releasing on September 25 for those purchasing the Champions Edition and September 28 for the standard variant, EA has finally announced when you'll be able to check out the FIFA 19 demo if you're on the fence about buying the game. The FIFA 19 demo release date is September 13. It will be available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Interestingly, if you have an EA Access subscription on Xbox One or an Origin Access account on PC, you'll be able to play the full FIFA 19 game a week later from September 20.
Earlier on, EA released the PC specifications needed to play FIFA 19.

FIFA 19 India release date
With FIFA 19 releasing on September 25 for those purchasing the Champions Edition and September 28 for the standard variant, it will be interesting to see if Amazon India manages to bring the game on time. Despite the popularity of the franchise in India, the company has never managed to get FIFA on time in the country. Ever. Be it FIFA 16, FIFA 17, or FIFA 18, Amazon India doesn't have the best track record with parallel imports beating the e-commerce giant to the punch year on year. Hopefully after three years of FIFA delays, this year's game actually shows up on time.
