In The UK, Thursday is the New Friday

2015-08-03
Electronic Arts

We’re excited to share with you that we are moving the release day for all future EA titles in the UK from Friday to Thursday.

Until now, players in the UK have had to wait until Friday for new EA games to release, one day after the rest of Europe. We realised that players wanted to be able to get in the game the same time as their friends across Europe and we’re happy to make this change.

Mark the new dates in your diary for our upcoming games:

EA SPORTS Madden NFL 16 – August 27

EA SPORTS FIFA 16 – September 24

Need for Speed – November 5

Star Wars Battlefront – November 19
