WHEN IS FIFA 17 RELEASED?

EA Sports let FIFA 17 loose on the world on September 29 in Europe – it’s here.

Those pesky lot over in North America already have it.

For some reason, the countries that call our beloved game ‘soccer’, stamping on more than 130 years of history, got theirs on September 27.

You can pick it up on Xbox One, PS4, or PC. There is also versions of the game on Xbox 360 and PS3.

WHAT TIME CAN I PLAY IT?

NOW! Those servers were turned on at midnight and FIFA 17 has now officially launched.

As in previous years, you were able to start playing as soon as we were a millisecond into September 29.

Be wary though, the servers will be absolutely bombarded, so hopefully you had your game pre-downloaded!

 WHERE CAN I BUY IT?

If you've not brought it yet, then you can always pick it up on the Microsoft or PlayStation digital stores.

The problem with that is it is A LOT more expensive than the deals you can get on the internet or in stores.

The high-street chain Game is a good place to start, they often have a midnight release launch, but do check with your local outlet.

Also, if you have a 24 hour Asda near you, they will sell the game at 12am as well, another good place to pick it up.

HOW MUCH WILL FIFA 17 COST?

HONESTLY, it all depends where you go, but there are deals out there.

Game are selling Fifa 17 for around £45.99, but Tesco is flogging it cheaper online at £42.99.

Amazon UK have it for £41.85, but give your local Asda a call, I've picked it up for less than £40 in previous years.

Shop around the internet, and see what deals you can pick up. Don't rush into anything if you can help it.

Just sit back, and enjoy the rollercoaster ride that is Fifa 17. Happy gaming!
