Is FC 27 Going To Be Available On PlayStation 4 and Xbox One?

Yes, FC 27 will be released on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One X|S. 

This isn't a surprise. The series has supported older generations of consoles well into the next cycle.

Sports games also tend to be the last ones to move on from previous generations, instead opting to sell reduced-feature versions of the game. 

For FC 27, plenty of new improvements, like off-balance dribbling and even modes like The Grounds, will not be available on old-gen. 

Because Clubs is now tied to The Grounds, it'll be another mode you won't be able to play on PS4 and Xbox One. The game will also offer significantly less visual and gameplay quality. 

All Release Platforms For FC 27 

FC 27 will release on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PC (via Steam, EGS, EA App), Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One X|S, and Nintendo Switch 1 & 2.

Similar to PS4 and Xbox One, several gameplay features, including The Grounds and Clubs mode, won't be available on Nintendo Switch 1. 

FC 27 Dual Entitlement Details

Through Dual Entitlement, you can upgrade your old-gen copy to the current-gen version once you get the new console. 

For example, if you buy FC 27 on PS4 and later upgrade to PS5, you can download the PS5 version with all features, like The Grounds, at no additional cost. 

Likewise, if for any odd reason you want to play the PS4 version on your PS5, you can do that too. You can't play the PS5 version on PS4 for obvious reasons. 

Keep in mind that Dual Entitlement only works in the same console family. You cannot get a PS5 version with an Xbox One purchase.
