Excitement is building among football gaming fans as potential pre-order rewards for EA Sports FC 26 have reportedly been leaked before the official release date announcement. According to insider sources, the upcoming installment in the EA Sports FC series will offer exclusive bonuses for both the new game and EA Sports FC 2025, giving players extra incentives while they await this year's release.

Following EA's split from FIFA in 2023, the company launched its standalone EA Sports FC franchise, with EA Sports FC 24 marking the series debut in September 2023. Despite the name change, the franchise continues to deliver the beloved single-player and multiplayer experiences fans expect, including the fan-favorite Ultimate Team mode. Rumors about EA Sports FC 26 have been circulating, with a speculated release date of September 26, 2025. Recent leaks suggest that the game's Ultimate Edition will mirror the bonuses offered in EA Sports FC 25 Ultimate Edition, with additional details now emerging.

Renowned leaker Fut Sheriff on Twitter has shared what appears to be the pre-order rewards for EA Sports FC 26 Ultimate Edition. If accurate, players can expect an untradeable base Icon, an additional Evolution slot, 4,600 to 6,000 FC Points, a Season 1 Premium Pass, up to seven days of early access, and a unique 93+ Icon Evolution. Notably, the 93+ Icon Evolution will be usable in EA Sports FC 25, providing an added perk while fans wait for EA Sports FC 26 to launch. However, EA has yet to officially confirm these details or the Ultimate Edition's pricing.

Potential EA Sports FC 26 Ultimate Edition Pre-Order Bonuses

• Untradeable base Icon
• Additional Evolution slot
• 4,600 to 6000 FC Points
• Season 1 Premium Pass
• Seven days of early access
• Unique 93+ Icon Evolution for EA Sports FC 25

The leak indicates that players must pre-order the Ultimate Edition by August 26, 2025, to secure these rewards—exactly one month before the rumored September 26 release date. EA is expected to officially announce the game's launch alongside their next Battlefield title this summer.

Additionally, EA Sports FC 26 may introduce new football heroes at launch, including legends like Cesc Fàbregas, Mario Mandžukić, and Michael Carrick. These heroes will be available in Ultimate Team, similar to EA Sports FC 25, further enhancing the game's appeal. The bonuses and new content will be accessible across multiple platforms, including the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2.
