FC 27 updates, seasons and what comes next
FC 27 has been out since 25 September 2026. This page follows it through the year: every title update and what it changed, the season clock in your own time zone, the weekly Ultimate Team resets and the dates the calendar already holds.
Title updates
Every FC 27 update and what it changed
Newest first, grouped by mode. A plain fix is marked as a fix; anything that changes how the game plays is marked as tuning.
Gameplay tuning has not changed since launch. Title Update v1.1 on 27 October changed no gameplay balance. EA's Gameplay Developer Notes of 28 October set out the first tuning, for Title Update v1.2.0 in mid-November: fullbacks holding the line, sharper offside awareness and attacking runs, a higher line after kick-off, and auto switching that picks the player nearest a loose ball after a slide tackle, a headed pass or a missed shot.

v1.0.4 Fixes only Career Mode transfer fixes, no gameplay tuning
Career Mode
- Manager Career generates fewer players with a high overall rating or high potential.
- Offering far more than a club asks still brings a response instead of an instant acceptance.
- Free agents can be signed again when the transfer market is off or the window is closed, and CPU counter-offers behave as intended.
Ultimate Team
- A Service Unavailable error could appear after a match in some modes.
- Some Player Picks could show Hyper cosmetic variants of base items.
The Grounds
- Opening the active club from the Player Profile could leave a loading screen that needed a restart.
- The screens after some matches appeared in the wrong order.
General
- Stability fixes, the player indicator colours on PS5, and team randomisation in FC Lite.
