As usual, the demo should be released for the most popular plaforms:

Playstation 4

However, it is not confirmed that a version for PS3 and Xb360 will be out. If released, it won’t feature gameplay improvements and mode innovations. Because FIFA on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 do not run on the Frostbite game engine, The Journey will only be available for Playstation 4, XBox One and PC.

The FIFA 18 Demo won’t be launched for iOS and Android.

Note: As soon FIFA 18 Demo becomes available, we’ll be updating these times.

FIFA 18 Demo Game Modes

Which game modes you will be able to play in the FIFA 18 Demo?

The FIFA 18 demo will be a limited version of the full game. It’s designed to show users what the full game will be like, showing off new features and gameplay improvements. Any progress will not carryover from the demo into the full game.

There are two game modes available on the FIFA 18 Demo: Kick-Off and The Journey. Just like last year, Ultimate Team was not included in the demo. It also has a menu that describes the new features of the game and another one that gives you the chance to buy the full game.

Kick-Off Mode

On Kick-Off mode, you can play a 4 minutes halves “Match Day” alone or against a friend. Take to the pitch with some of the best clubs in the world. There are ten teams available to play. It is possible to send the goals scored on the demo to EA Sports Football Club.

Here are the game settings of the kick-off mode:

Match Lenght:
8 minutes (4 minutes each half)

Match Type:
Single player or against a friend

Difficulty Level:
Beginner, Amateur, Semi-Pro, Professional, World Class or Legend

Match Conditions:
Custom (can’t change)

Season:
Autumn / Fall (can’t change)

Stadiums:
<img src= " class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Stubhub Center and two other stadiums

Time of the Day:
Day or Night

Weather:
Rain or Clear

Menu Options:
Play Match, Team Management, Game Settings, Controller Settings and Select Sides

Kits:
Home or Away (the third kit is not available in the demo)

The Journey II

The FIFA 18 Demo will include a limited version of The Journey II, also known as ‘Hunter Returns’. On The Journey mode, you can control Alex Hunter, inside and outside the pitch, on a journey to make his mark in one of the most popular clubs. It’s a cinematic world informed and influenced by real players, personalities, locations and events that take you places you’ve never been and bring you experiences only available in FIFA 18.

Obviously, this game mode has a few restrictions in the demo, like the club where he plays (probably Real Madrid) or the limited time you can play. Progress will not carry over to the full version of FIFA 18, but should be enough to help you decide if this game mode is for you or not.
