The FIFA 22 Dual Entitlement is a program created by Electronic Arts that lets you upgrade for free from PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
FIFA 22 Dual Entitlement Program
Buy 1, Get 2
Once again, EA SPORTS will deliver distinct experiences across current and next-generation platforms. New innovations unlocked by the power of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X will feature on the new consoles. Through partnerships with Sony and Microsoft, EA SPORTS will offer Dual Entitlement, creating ways for players who purchase either an Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5 to upgrade their copy of FIFA 22 from prior generation Xbox One or PlayStation 4 platforms at no additional cost. This means that you won’t need to buy FIFA 22 twice to upgrade your copy of the game from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X. This offer will be in place all the way through the FIFA 22 season, up to the release of FIFA 22, so players can upgrade whenever they first purchase their new console within that period. Contrary to what happened last year, this offer is not valid for the standard edition. The FIFA 22 Dual Entitlement Program only works if you pre-order the Champions or the Ultimate Edition.
Here’s how Dual Entitlement will work in FIFA 22:
What is Dual Entitlement?
Once you have your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, Dual Entitlement enables you to upgrade your copy of FIFA 22 on PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5, or from Xbox One to Xbox Series X, at no extra cost.
How do I make sure I benefit from Dual Entitlement on my PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X?
If you purchase FIFA 22 for PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, you’ll be able to upgrade your copy once you have the corresponding next-generation console (PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X) at no extra cost by downloading it to your console up until the launch of FIFA 23.
Do I have to purchase FIFA 22 digitally to benefit from Dual Entitlement?
If you pre-order the digital PlayStation 4 or Xbox One version of the FIFA 22 Champions Edition, or purchase the FIFA 22 Ultimate Edition (available only via pre-order), you will receive a digital copy of the full game on PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S. If you pre-order the physical PlayStation 4 or Xbox One version of the FIFA 22 Champions Edition, or purchase the FIFA 22 Ultimate Edition (available only via pre-order), you will get a single-use code in box, for one digital copy of the full game on PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S.
In short: the physical copy of FIFA 22 on PlayStation 4 also includes your entitlement to download and play the PlayStation 5 version of the game (and Xbox One with Xbox Series X).
Will my progress on PlayStation 4 transfer to PlayStation 5, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X?
All progress you make or content you acquire within FIFA 22 Ultimate Team (including players, items, coins, FIFA Points, match record, and leaderboard placement), as well as all progression in VOLTA FOOTBALL will transfer from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 and back, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X and back. Progress within all other modes including Online Seasons, Co-Op Seasons, Career Mode, Pro Clubs, etc. will be specific to the console you are playing on and won’t transfer between consoles.
How does the Dual Entitlement upgrade work on next-generation consoles?
If you buy a copy of FIFA 22 on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, you’ll be able to download and play FIFA 22 on PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X from the PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store at no extra cost.
Once I upgrade can I go back to PlayStation 4 or Xbox One?
Yes, you’ll be able to play FIFA 22 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One after taking advantage of the Dual Entitlement offer.
Any progress you make in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team and VOLTA FOOTBALL will transfer from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 and back, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X and back. Progress within all other modes including Online Seasons, Co-Op Seasons, Career Mode, Pro Clubs, etc. will be specific to the console you are playing on and won’t transfer between consoles.
What if I upgrade from PlayStation 4 to Xbox Series X, or Xbox One to PlayStation 5?
The Dual Entitlement upgrade is only available when you upgrade from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X.
Will my progress transfer if I go from PlayStation 4 to Xbox Series X, or Xbox One to PlayStation 5?
No, your progress in VOLTA FOOTBALL and FIFA 22 Ultimate Team will only transfer from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X.
In summary:
– The FIFA 22 Dual Entitlement Program is only available for pre-orders and is not valid for the standard edition;
– Your FUT and Volta progress will carryover to the next-gen.
