How to play EA FC 25 with EA Play: What membership do you need?

EA FC 25 is officially here and while you might be one of the eager ones with your pre-order in, there are a lot of gamers who are unsure as to whether to buy this year’s iteration.

One way to minimize the cost of this is by picking up an EA Play subscription but which one is required?

Here, we’ll take you through how to play EA FC 25 with EA Play, hopefully answering any questions you have on the matter.

How to play EA FC 25 with EA Play explained

Seeing as though there are different EA Play memberships that you can sign up for, it is confusing for which one is required to ensure you’re able to play EA FC 25.

Let’s break the whole thing down so you can subscribe to the right one and get right to playing the game.

Technically, you can play EA FC 25 with either the standard EA Play or EA Play Pro subscription.

However, with the basic version, this is only a 10-hour trial, meaning that although you technically get access to the full EA FC 25 experience, you do have a timer to watch out for.

With EA Play Pro, you naturally secure yourself the full EA FC 25 game with no countdown, as well as a bunch of other benefits.

Here are those extras, bolstering the overall package:

  • Football Ultimate Team™ Player Loan Item
  • Ambassador Loan Item
  • Clubs PlayStyles Slot
  • 250000 Clubs Coins
  • Player Career Personality Points
  • 3 ICONs in Player Career
  • 5-star Coach in Manager Career
  • 5-star Youth Scout in Manager Career
  • Untradeable Ultimate Team Hero Player Item for EA SPORTS FC™ 25
  • Up to 7 Days Early Access
  • 4800 FC Points (to be distributed over 3 months)
  • Player Evolution Slot
  • Early Access Rush Rewards

As you would expect, EA Play Pro is a higher priced product coming in at $16.99 (£16.99) a month. But, seeing as though the retail price for the game is around $60, you can squeeze a few months of EA FC 25 action in before it technically costs more.
