FIFA 19 EARLY ACCESS – LAUNCH
EA Sports haven't provided a specific time for when they intend to flick the metaphorical switch and allow players to start playing the game.
That being said, EA arepretty predictable when it comes to launching new feature and products, so we would anticipate for early access to begin from 3pm BST in the afternoon.
The FIFA 19 Early Access period last week appeared to go live early at around 4pm BST – just as EA did with Madden 19 – so it's possible we could see EA employ the same rough launch time tomorrow.
In the meantime, it might also be worth downloading your game once you've pre-ordered.
Since Pre-Load is now available, it will save you wasting any time tomorrow waiting for the game to download when you could be playing.
