EA FC26 (which I am determined to keep calling FIFA 26) retails at $70.00. Not cheap. Luckily, there are ways to get it for free or very cheaply using promotions and rewards platforms.
Use Free Trials and Game Subscription Services
Let's start with the obvious, if you're an EA Play member you
- EA Play ($6.00/month): Provides free trials to new releases like FC26, and 10% off purchases.
- EA Play is included with the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ($15.00/month).
- EA Play Pro ($17.00/month): Provides complete day-one access to FC26 and over 6,000 FC Points. Note, EA Play Pro is PC-only.
You could subscribe to EA Play Pro from release until Black Friday, enjoy all the free FC Points, then buy the title and cancel your subscription. This is a popular method to enjoy all the benefits without paying full price.
