EA Sports FC 27

EA Sports FC 27 is the fourth football game Electronic Arts has released under the EA Sports FC name since its licensing deal with FIFA ended, and the latest entry in an annual series that dates back to 1993. It is developed by EA Vancouver and EA Romania and launched on 25 September 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, with seven days of early access for Ultimate Edition owners from 18 September.

This year's headline addition is The Grounds, an open-world online hub that replaces the old Clubs mode and hosts small-sided matches, 11v11 games and mini-games. Alongside it, EA reworked tactics, corners and passing on the pitch, rebuilt Career Mode transfers around staged negotiations, and added the FUT Gallery collection system to Ultimate Team.

On this hub you will find AFK Journal's coverage of the game, starting with our evidence-based review, which weighs critic scores from OpenCritic against Steam player reviews. As with every game we cover, figures are dated and linked to their sources, and we update our articles when patches or new data change the picture.
