How to Get 20 Hours Early Access – FIFA 22

In FIFA's last few years, EA Sports only gave players a potential 10 hours of game time in Early Access. However, for FIFA 22, they have decided to bring this up to 20pm for players on Next-Gen consoles, which will surely be welcomed.

The early access period will serve both players and developers alike, as players get a head start on the title, while developers have a last-minute test run to iron out potential bugs. The early access period will open on September 22 and will last until the title officially goes live on October 1.



It's a pretty straightforward process to get up and running with Early Access, so follow these steps and you'll be logging into FIFA 22 in no time.
