EA Sports will conduct a surprise gameplay livestream for FC 26 ahead of early access, and you can get a first glimpse of what’s set to appear this year.
The public’s first trial with the game was during the closed beta, which was operational during August. Since then, EA Sports has made plenty of gameplay changes, which we can then view directly on the livestream.
This guide will keep you on track regarding when and where to catch all the action.
FC 26 first gameplay livestream countdown
The first official gameplay livestream will occur on Tuesday, Sept. 16. EA Sports has officially announced the date on the game’s X account. You can catch it on YouTube (more on that later), and the following countdown will ensure you don’t miss out on the action.
The countdown is based on the following timings. It will be taking place simultaneously across all regions.
- 7am PT
- 9am CT
- 10am ET
- 2pm UTC
- 3pm BST

As of writing this guide on Sept. 14, the premier is about 44 hours away from going live. Once the premier is live, the countdown will expire. Let’s find out how to watch the first gameplay reveal.
How to watch the first FC 26 gameplay livestream?
Catching hold of the first gameplay is easy and free, but you’ll have to be on YouTube. Simply go to this link, and you’ll be able to catch all the action once the livestream begins. I am unsure how long the premier will be, and EA Sports has also promised there will be special stars.
It will be exciting to find out how the gameplay looks as we wait for the official early access launch. Those with Ultimate Edition can jump in on Sept. 19 (or Sept. 18 if they’re on PC), while the standard launch happens on Sept. 26.
