How to get FIFA 22 beta codes

To be in contention for a FIFA 22 closed beta code, you need to be a verified FUT Champions player. To qualify for this, you must have managed to win at least 27 matches in one weekend of the competition in FIFA 21. These players will automatically be sent codes, but that is not the only route to playing FIFA 22 early.

Follow the instructions below to increase your chances of being selected.

How to sign up for EA emails

  1. Go to your EA Account Email Preferences.
  2. From there, check the box to be informed about new EA services and news emails.
  3. Remember to make sure you’re checking the right email address as well. Then, even if it’s not guaranteed, wait to be granted access.
  4. If you receive one, check the mode you have been granted access to.
  5. Load up the code onto your Xbox or PlayStation console.

When does the FIFA 22 closed beta start?

The FIFA 22 Closed Beta starts on August 12, 2021. 

End date

The FIFA 22 Closed beta ends on September 2, 2021. 

What’s included?

Those who have codes can scroll through the new-look menus, play FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, Career Mode, VOLTA Football, and Pro Clubs.

Download size

The FIFA 22 closed beta is 39.067 GB, according to some players.

Does anything carry over from the FIFA 22 beta?

No, saved progress will not carry over to the full version or the EA Play early access version of FIFA 22. 

What can you share?

To play the beta, you must agree to not share media from the early edition of the game that becomes playable. Should you not abide by that agreement, you risk breaking the DMCA agreement signed when agreeing to play.

Therefore, “leaking” content on YouTube, Twitter, or other social platforms is forbidden.
