In the upcoming football simulation FIFA 17, there are ways to play the game before anyone else.
The official launch of FIFA 17 is on September 29, 2016. From then on, you can purchase the latest FIFA installment from EA Sports. Many fans are already itching to get their hands on it: FIFA 16 is now stale, and the developers have promised numerous innovations for FIFA 17 – even choosing the motto: “Football has changed”.
Currently, there are four known ways to get FIFA 17 before its release. If you use one of them, you can not only get a sneak peek, but also brag about it to your colleagues in school or at work after the summer break.
“Players First” Germany Tour and Gamescom 2016
In just a few days, EA Sports will be touring Germany with FIFA 17. The “Players First” community event will take place in several German cities, with 65 tickets per city distributed to fans. The kick-off will be on July 25 in Frankfurt, and the fun will end in Munich on July 30. By the way, you only have to worry about gaming, as EA Sports will provide food and drinks. You can find more info about the “Players First” Germany Tour on the EA website.
If you weren’t able to secure a ticket for the Germany Tour, you can embark on a trip to Cologne: The world-famous gaming fair Gamescom will take place there from August 17 to 21 – with several “FIFA 17” demo booths. Here too, you can take an early look at the game that many are eagerly anticipating.
Early Access and Demo of FIFA 17
If you are on Xbox or PC, you can get early access to FIFA 17 with the paid online services EA Access and Origin Access. So if you prefer to stay away from the bustle of Gamescom, you can play FIFA 17 with all the contents of the full version a week before its release, on September 22. The Access version is limited to a certain time, but you can transfer the progress made to the purchased version.
In recent years, EA Sports has consistently released a demo of the respective FIFA installment on PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360, and PC at the beginning of September, which players could download for free. This is likely to be the case with FIFA 17 as well.
A leak a few weeks ago gives hints about which game modes and teams might be included in the “FIFA 17” demo.
We were able to play an early version of FIFA 17 in June. This is our first impression.
