How to play FC 26 for free on Xbox Game Pass

• The 10-hour trial of EA Sports FC 26 is now live, starting today, September 18th, at 2:00 PM (Spanish mainland time) / 7:00 AM (Mexico City time). Any user with an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription can download the full game and play during this period.

To access, simply search for FC 26 from the Xbox Store or the Game Pass app, select the option “Try it free with Xbox Game Pass/EA Play”, and start the download. The 10-hour counter starts when the game is first launched.

• Ultimate Edition: will be available to play from midnight on September 19th (1:00 AM on PC).

• Standard Edition: will be officially released for all players on September 26th.

On Xbox, the installation size is around 55 GB, so a similar weight is expected on PC, perhaps a bit more. If the banner does not appear in Xbox Game Pass, I recommend using the manual search to locate the game and activate the trial without issues.
