We’re excited to share with you that we are moving the release day for all future EA titles in the UK from Friday to Thursday.
Until now, players in the UK have had to wait until Friday for new EA games to release, one day after the rest of Europe. We realised that players wanted to be able to get in the game the same time as their friends across Europe and we’re happy to make this change.
Mark the new dates in your diary for our upcoming games:
EA SPORTS Madden NFL 16 – August 27
EA SPORTS FIFA 16 – September 24
Need for Speed – November 5
Star Wars Battlefront – November 19
