  1. Pre ordered ultimate edition fifa 22 and got e play but free 10 hours is fifa 21.anybody help me

    1. Look for FIFA 22 PRE-ORDER and select it. Then you will see the Download Trial button next to Pre-order button if you are a EA Play member.

  2. GREAT GAME
    YOUR CUCHING UP TO PES YOU NOW HAVE OVERTAKEN PES BY A HUGE MILE
    PLS MAKE FIFA MOBILLE NOT A PAY TO WIN GAME

  3. I pre ordered the ultimate edition fifa 22
    On fifa 21 when they were offering 10%off cuz I had fifa 21
    And now they say I pre ordered the regular edition when I truly bought the game at 120$ bucks

    1. @Victor, I am facing a similar issue. I paid for Ultimate version but I only see standard version of the game on my Xbox one.
      Did you manage to resolve the issue?

  4. I have ea play subscription, but theres no option to download the 10 hour early access anywhere?? Can someone help me out please would be much appreciated

  5. I don’t really get it. If I have an EAPlay pro subscription and don’t buy the game, can I still play it starting september 22nd?

    1. i have been having an issue with pre loading the game on Steam frustrating as i am a EA Play member and i have Ultimate edition of Fifa 22 aswell

  6. I pre ordered the game then got da play does that mean I won’t get a early access because I should’ve gotten it today but I uavent

  7. can i spread out my 10 hours or do i have to use it the day i activate the trial for example if i activated it tomorrow at 6pm would i have to play the whole 10 hours there and then or can i play 5 hours 1 day and 5 hours another day

    1. You can play as little or as much as you like, you don’t have to play the whole 10hrs there and the. When you start up the game it tells you how much you’ve played and how long you’ve got left, the time only goes down whilst you’re play it.

  8. It’s all b@#$occasions. The ultimate version is on PlayStation store and only for the ps5. You can pre order the ultimate edition at Game but it gets delivered for the 1st of October. So again PlayStation are looking after those with ps5s and leaving ps4 out. Looks like I might go back to xbox. Such a shame!!!!

  9. So.. just to clarify if I want to play fifa 22 on the 22nd do I have to buy the ultimate edition or just standard

    1. i think no matter what version you get aslong as you have ea play you can play for 10 hours until the 1st of october but if you got the ultimate edition aswell u can play for 10 hours from september 22nd to september 27th

      1. What happens if you get ea access today and then buy the ultimate edition on the 27th do you still get the stuff in the ultimate edition or not?

  10. I need it so badly
    Send me wear to put me in the code please I have bin saving up for ages big fan

  11. I have EA play, how do I get EA Play Pro for ps4 so I can play or more than 10 hours on September 22

  12. for EA play pro members are get purchased the full game or no? becuase other game is play every day by EA play pro

  13. You’ve got this all wrong mate. You get the game in full on 27th September if you purchase the ultimate edition. You can play the game from 22nd September on a 10 hour trial (which is 9 days before actual release of standard edition) via EA play
