MMOexp FC 26: Ensuring you have something new to unlock every time

How to Unlock Season 1 Premium Pass

If you've bought the Ultimate Edition, here's how to make sure your Premium Pass is unlocked correctly:

Step 1: Install and Launch the Game

Make sure you're signed into FC 26 Coins the same account where you purchased or redeemed the Ultimate Edition.

On launch day (or early access week), download and start FC 26.

Step 2: Claim Your Ultimate Edition Perks

Navigate to Ultimate Team → Store → My Packs.

You'll see the Ultimate Edition perks available to claim. This includes your 4,600 FC Points and your Premium Pass entitlement.

Step 3: Activate the Premium Pass

Go to the Season Progress tab (on the Ultimate Team main menu).

You should see the Season 1 track with both Free and Premium tiers. If the Premium track is unlocked, your edition has applied correctly.

Step 4: Start Earning XP

Begin completing objectives, playing Squad Battles, Rivals, and FUT Champs to gain XP. Every tier you unlock now applies to both the free and premium rewards.

Troubleshooting: If the Pass Doesn't Unlock

Occasionally, players run into issues where the Premium Pass doesn't appear:

Restart the Game: Close and reopen the app.

Check for Updates: Make sure your version is the latest patch.

Verify Edition Ownership: On PlayStation, Xbox, or PC, confirm you downloaded the Ultimate Edition, not the Standard Edition.

Redeem Codes (If Applicable): Physical copies or third-party purchases sometimes include codes you must redeem manually.

Contact EA Help: If all else fails, open a support ticket with proof of Ultimate Edition purchase.
