Back at EA Play Live, we got our first look at FIFA 21 on the next generation of consoles and as always, the leading football game looked better than ever, fully utilising the immense graphical power of the PS5.

The short trailer didn’t reveal much information but after the event, EA did confirm further details about the latest release in the FIFA franchise.

In this article, find out all the information about FIFA 21 on the PS5, including a release date, trailer, details on bundles and everything you need to know.

THE BEAUTIFUL GAME IS BACK: FIFA returns with a big upgrade

EA has confirmed that FIFA 21 will launch on current generation consoles on October 9th but has yet to confirm any official details regarding its release on PS5.

The lack of release date for the PS5 is likely due to the uncertainty surrounding the release of the new console, which is still slated for a “Holiday 2020” release. Once the release date of the new console is released, a FIFA 21 PS5 release date won’t be far behind.

 

Trailer

There hasn’t been a standalone trailer for FIFA 21 on next-gen consoles. The only trailer displaying next-gen footage for the game is the trailer which was unveiled at EA Play Live back in June. You can watch the trailer below.

CASH FLOW: We expect the new FIFA to cost roughly £60

Combined with no release date for the PS5 edition of the game, there have been no signs of a price for the new game.

Fans of FIFA won’t wait for the release of the game on next-gen consoles so they will be buying the current-gen edition. For those wanting to upgrade to PS5 when the console launches, EA has you covered.

 

Free Upgrade

Players that buy FIFA 21 on PS4 will be entitled to a free upgrade when Sony’s new piece of hardware hits the shelves.

 Known as duel entitlement, players will have the option to upgrade the PS4 version of FIFA 21 free of charge before the release of FIFA 22.

PS5 v PS4

FIFA on PS5 is going to look better than ever thanks to the graphical capabilities of the new console. Along with enhanced player animations and better visuals, FIFA on PS5 will look far better than FIFA on the PS4.

Another benefit of next-gen FIFA will be the lightning-fast loading times, allowing players to get onto the pitch and into the action faster than ever before.

With a lack of cross-generation play, if you are looking to continue your Pro Clubs dominance with your friends on the new game when they have upgraded, you will be left behind unless EA unveils some new innovations ahead of release in October.
