Ultimate edition bought on Aug 25th

I purchased the ultimate edition of FC26 on August 25th and for some reason it says I don’t have access to play until the general release date is this correct? I thought if you purchased the ultimate edition you got a week prior to release to play.

    And here when I try to launch the game (I know its not out yet) It says above, 8 AM EST (11 hours earlier) but when you actually try to launch, the window tells you the game releases at 7 PM EST (11 hours later, the same day)

    this is a whole 11 hours later.. you may think wow this guy's an idiot for taking off work but I would've not done so knowing I would have to wait 11 extra hours now.. its not cool to change the time less than 48 hours before the launch time

    How come the Launch Update page was recently changed and now your information differs from what EA are telling us.. I am worried because I took Thursday off thinking I can play at 8 AM EST, now its changed BACK to the original 7 PM EST Sept 18 launch? (Talking about PC)

    Hi there! If you purchased the Ultimate Edition, you’ll have early access. Ultimate Edition players can start at midnight local time on September 19 on Console and September 18, 1 PM BST on PC. Check out our latest FC 26 Launch Update for more interesting information about the release. 

     

  • If you bought it on steam its a visual bug if you go in ea app it shows the CORRECT release date

    i was scared because yesterday i had the same question too
