How to pre-order FIFA 21 - versions, bonuses, release dates

If ever there was a time to buy an annual edition of FIFA, it would probably be now as those who buy FIFA 21 on Xbox One or PlayStation 4 can upgrade it, for free, to the respective next-gen console. This makes it even more beneficial to pre-order, with additional bonuses to add on top of your free next-gen copy of the latest EA Sports football title.

Release date

We understand that you are probably used to the release of FIFA in early September, but due to COVID-19, FIFA 21 will hit shelves and digital stores on October 9. If you're dangerously on the edge for a taste of new soccer content, those hungry enough can get it three days early with pre-ordering the most coveted editions.



Which platforms have special editions?

In total, there are three editions of FIFA 21, Standard, Champions and Ultimate - Ultimate being the biggest package, hence the name. All three are available for pre-order now. Unfortunately, Nintendo Switch ones can only pre-order the Standard Edition. For PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and also PC users, here's what separates all of your possible pre-order options.

standard edition

As usual, the base game is priced at $ 59,99 / £ 54,99. However, you will still be able to upgrade the game to your future next-gen console. Pre-order bonuses include: up to three rare gold packs (one per week for three weeks), a five-match Kylian Mbappé loan card, one of three gold FUT ambassadors, and Ultimate Team kits and stadiums additional.


Champions Edition

For $ 79,99 / £ 74,99, it's one of two editions that will get you playing the game three days in advance. It contains all the bonuses of the Standard Edition, as well as Homegrown Talent Career mode (a prospect with “world-class” potential) and up to 12 Rare Gold Packs (one per week for 12 weeks).


Latest Edition

The best edition of all will set you back $ 99,99 / £ 84,99. As well as allowing you to play three days in advance, the Ultimate Edition also offers all the bonuses of the other variations. However, instead of 12 Gold Packs, you'll receive a ridiculous 24 Rare Gold Packs for Ultimate Team (two per week for 12 weeks). So your team needs to be stacked before even playing a single game - which is always invaluable.
